CALL FOR SPEAKERS. Are you a woman in advertising?

Exciting speaker request!

Recently, there were some conversations on Twitter and LinkedIn about the lineup of Zee MELT as there was a lack of diversity in the speakers announced. Since then, we’ve been working with the team at Zee MELT to fix this.

At DICE, whilst we believe it’s important for people to flag where an event isn’t as inclusive as it can possibly be, we also know that a lot of hard word goes into event curation, and we need to work together as a community to raise the bar.

The team at Zee MELT are committed to securing a diverse lineup. Normally they aim for 40% women, but know that this is not enough. We are therefore putting the call out today for female advertisers, trendsetters and creative rebels who can take part, either alone or on a panel.

Zee MELT is an advertising, marketing and digital conference. It’s on September 3rd and 4th of this year. The theme this year is ‘here comes the sun’. They want positivity and big thinking. It is, of course, a virtual event. Interested?

The highlights from last year are here and if you’re keen, our DMs are open. Please message us with your area of expertise and a website/LinkedIn profile. The team at Zee MELT are also open to conversations around fee.

Thank you to everyone who brought this event to our attention. We look forward to hearing from some amazing women, especially women of colour, and we look forward to getting Zee MELT DICE certified.

If you would like to pitch yourself, please email your area of expertise and LinkedIn profile to talktodice@gmail.com
