Organisers behind this year's Develop conference have urged potential speakers to submit their talk proposals before the deadline passes on 7 March.

As in previous years, Develop 2014 is bound for Brighton on the south coast of England, with the industry's leading lights set to take to the stage at the Hilton Brighton Metropole Hotel from 8-10 July.

Speak up

Last years Develop conference brought in a record number of attendees - 1,667 to be exact - with 85 percent of them rating the event as 'good' or 'excellent'.

The venue of choice, the Hilton Brighton Metropole

"We personally invite the majority of our speakers knowing - based on input from delegates and our advisory board - that they will deliver insight into the issues of most importance to the industry," commented Andy Lane, MD of organiser Tandem Events.

"But we also like to extend that invitation wider to ensure that all developers who have something valid and insightful to share have an opportunity to do so."
