The Southern Society for Coatings Technology is seeking technical speakers for its 2018 Technical Meeting Conference.

The conference takes place May 20-23 at the San Destin Golf and Beach Resort in San Destin, Fla.

Speakers will be asked to present on the mornings of May 21-23.

According to SSCT, the following criteria must be met for presentations:

A 200-word maximum abstract submitted in its entirety (must be submitted no later than Jan. 15, 2018) which includes a name, title, company, abstract title and a 2.5’x 2.5’/225 pixels x 225 pixels picture.

A 200-word maximum biography, also due no later than Jan. 15.

Abstracts and pictures should be emailed to SSCTAnnualMeeting@gmail.com.

Acceptance letters will be sent on or before Jan. 20, 2018, according to SSCT.

SSCT asks that presentations range between 20-30 minutes in length and a PowerPoint version be emailed to ssctorg@gmail.com no later than April 15, 2018.

According to SSCT, presentations will be reviewed solely on their technical content and contribution.

“We are trying to challenge traditional methods of formulation as well as solve conventional issues that have plagued formulators utilizing new technologies and approaches,”said VP Keith Limardo. “It is also our goal to improve coatings performance and functionality beyond traditional expectations.”

While SSCT anticipates seeing a company logo on the title and acknowledgement slides, “we do not expect the presentations to be a platform for new proprietary product introductions, specific trade name promotions, or a lengthy commercial for the speaker’s employer,” Limardo said. “Please keep this in mind when submitting your presentation.”
