I'm helping Kids Drone Zone find speakers and sponsors for a global virtual career expo scheduled for October 24-26.
Would someone be interested in a speaking role and in investing in their future?
The focus will be career paths in aviation and unmanned systems as well as the associated technologies and other fields. The audience will be middle and high school students who are interested in learning more about career paths in those fields.
Call for speakers:
- We're inviting speakers to present on some career topic (career fields related to aviation and drone tech, education/career paths into the industry, industry trends, etc.)? The duration would be an hour (presentation + Q&A).
- Because it's virtual, speakers won't have to travel. Also, the event will run 24 hours a day to accommodate the time zones of all the young people and make it possible to have speakers from different countries.
- There are also four keynote opportunities.
To invest in these young people's futures, the sponsorship opportunities defray the direct costs of the event to ensure young people can attend for free. They will be attending virtually from around the world.
Some background: Kids Drone Zone has been preparing young people for STEAM careers since 2015 through aviation/drone tech camps, commercial drone license training, and a film festival. The global expo is the latest undertaking to promote workforce readiness.
I'd be happy to chat with you about the event or connect you with the global expo leader. Contact Leroy Hurt at LeroyHurt@hotmail.com for details.
