Summary
Speaker representation remains a persistent gap in search industry events. Sophie Logan, Community and Editorial Manager at Brighton and HERO Conference, curates event agendas and identifies a critical supply-side problem: qualified female and non-binary practitioners aren't pitching to speak. She examines how conference agendas depend on inbound speaker pitches, why the visibility gap extends across stages, LinkedIn, and industry blogs, and what expanding representation could look like heading into 2026 and beyond.
