GET IN THE SPOTLIGHT
Have a business, vision or story people should know about?
A limited number of guests who sign up in advance may be invited to be in the spotlight. Deliver a 20-second introduction, then join Celebrity AT for a lively exchange—two minutes maximum from start to finish.
The timer keeps it moving. Celebrity AT brings the questions. And yes, there’s a bell.
Media Spotlight participation requires advance signup and confirmation. An admission ticket does not reserve a speaking slot. If the spotlight list fills, you can still attend, connect and enjoy the event while tickets remain available.
