Request to Speak at The EXCHANGE Sample Invite
**SAMPLE DRAFT**
Dear [Name],
On Behalf of Dean Paul Jarley, I would like to invite you to consider speaking at The EXCHANGE, a 100-seat “idea” room that is the hub of educational activities at the UCF’s College of Business. The space was designed to expand learning at the College by connecting students with thought leaders like yourself and provide them with a glimpse into business topics and careers. It is a place where we focus on education out of the classroom.
We would be honored to have you or someone from your company speak to our students about your professional journey or a topic that might expose them to new ideas or ways of thinking about business. Here is A Guide to Appearing at The EXCHANGE, which has valuable information about the venue and what to expect before, during and after visiting as a presenter.
Because we schedule several months out, we currently are looking for speakers in the months of March and April. If you are interested in presenting to business students in The EXCHANGE, please complete this brief request for additional information http://business.ucf.edu/request-to-speak-at-the-exchange/. We will be in touch soon with available calendar options for Spring 2017.
Here is a sample agenda for guest speakers:
- Welcome and Introduction (5 minutes)
- Presentation (30 – 40 minutes)
- Questions from the Audience (remaining time)
For more information about The EXCHANGE or if you would like to talk through potential topics or format ideas, please contact Jennifer Johnson, Director of The EXCHANGE, at 407-823-2385 or jennifer.johnson@ucf.edu.
Warm Regards,
[Signature]
