What to Include in a Speaker Bio?

Speaker bios establish credibility before someone takes the stage. Include: full name, current role and company, relevant expertise, speaking experience or notable talks, publications or media appearances, and a credential that ties to the event topic. Use third person. Keep conference bios to 2-4 sentences unless the organizer requests longer. Mention what makes them a unique voice on the topic. Avoid listing every job—focus on what matters for this audience. End with something human (hometown, hobby) if space allows.
