# The 2022 SUMMIT Call for Speakers is now open



November 2, 2021

[The Payments Canada SUMMIT](https://www.thesummit.ca/) (Beanfield Centre, April 26-28, 2022) is now accepting submissions to the 2022 Call for Speakers.

The SUMMIT’s Call for Speakers is an open invitation to presenters, panelists, facilitators and moderators who want to discuss the biggest issues impacting payments today and in the future. Apply to speak on topics ranging from digital payments, open banking, security, risk management, the power of payment data, customer experience and financial inclusion. New and emerging topics are welcome too as we are always looking for new ways of thinking about payments.

Your application will also be considered for one of The SUMMIT Series webinars, or The PayPod, Payments Canada’s podcast series.

The SUMMIT Call for Speakers is open now until November 30. To apply, have your session title and abstract (maximum 200 words) ready to submit, along with a brief business biography.
