Now Accepting Applications for 2026 Convention Speakers
Florida Realtors® uses a speaker submission process to evaluate speakers for our annual Convention & Trade Expo. All speakers who are interested in being considered for an education breakout session time slot during our 2026 convention must complete a "call for proposal" application.
Speaker submissions are accepted from September 1 through October 10.
FAQs
The Florida Realtors Convention & Trade Expo is the largest annual gathering of real estate professionals in the State of Florida. The conference education sessions give attendees practical and timely information on how to do their business better. The expo floor features hundreds of real estate-related products and services for Realtors — and their clients.
Who attends the Florida Realtors Convention & Trade Expo? Each August, thousands of Florida Realtors and other people with ties to the real estate industry flock to Orlando — brokers, agents and board staff at all levels in their careers.
What is the benefit of speaking at the Florida Realtors Convention?
- Speakers receive increased visibility within the real estate industry, which includes not only Realtors but also managing brokers, franchise owners and local/state real estate board staff.
- Speakers also receive a complimentary pass to the event the year they are speaking. This pass is a $185 value and gives the speaker access to attend other educational sessions and the two-day expo. All speakers receive a complimentary audio recording of their session.
- Florida Realtors provides speaker compensation in the form of negotiated platform fees associated with education breakout sessions (not keynote sessions), in addition to negotiated fees travel (airfare or mileage — no meals). Fees would be negotiated once selection process is complete.
Why am I not permitted to sell/promote my products and services in the session?
Attendees come to the session for an educational experience, not to hear a sales pitch. They consistently give negative evaluations to sessions that they perceive to be “product or personal pitches.”
