Request a MHRA speaker at an event or conference
Every year the MHRA receives requests for its staff to speak at conferences and other events across the world.
Complete the speaker request form if you want to request a MHRA speaker to present at your event or conference.
About MHRA speakers
Before accepting an invitation to speak, we consider the following:
- if the speaking engagement is in line with our corporate and business objectives
- if the MHRA is already planning to speak on this subject, including at an MHRA-organised event
We accept speaker requests only where the event would provide us with an opportunity to engage with key stakeholders that is not otherwise available
All requests must be submitted via our online Speaker Request Form.
Speaker fees
The MHRA does not charge speaker fees. However, we do ask that the event organisers arrange and pay for the speaker’s travel, accommodation and subsistence costs. This is to ensure the MHRA does not incur any financial loss.
Making a request
We encourage you to tell us if you would like a specific member of the MHRA team or subject matter expert, but be prepared to be flexible, as your first choice may not always be available. DAll requests must be submitted via the speaker request form and should not be sent directly to MHRA staff.
The MHRA needs as much notice as possible when requesting a speaker. Four to six months advance notice is ideal. We will accept requests at shorter notice, but we are less likely to be able to provide you with suitable speakers.
We endeavour to get back to you within 18 working days of the initial request, however in some cases the approval process may take longer.
Feedback
Please email any feedback to MHRA Customer Services Team at info@mhra.gov.uk as this helps improve the service for other users.
