2027 NACE Annual Conference- Call for Presentations

NACE invites county engineers, association partners, and Corporate Members to submit presentation proposals to the NACE Technical Program Committees for consideration for the 2027 Annual Conference in Cleveland, OH (April 5-8).  

NACE technical sessions provide Professional Development Hours (PDH) for attendees so all proposals should provide educational content instead of a direct sales pitch. All proposals will be sent to the appropriate committee chair after the deadline which is noon EDT on AUGUST 12.  Preference is given to NACE members. Speakers will receive a $100 discount on conference registration. Speakers are responsible for their own travel and accommodations.

Alternatively, companies can be guaranteed a 1-hour slot by sponsoring one of the technical tracks or participating in the Innovation Breakfast on the last morning. Please contact Staci@countyengineers.org for more information. The NACE 2027 Exhibitor and Sponsorship Prospectus will be available on September 9th. 

For questions about specific tracks, please reach out to the NACE Committee Chairs

Please provide any details about the presentation that would require special set-up, special AV needs, or fire marshal approval.
