TMA Invites Industry Professionals to Submit Speaking Proposals for its 2026 Meetings

The Monitoring Association (TMA) is now accepting speaking proposals from industry professionals for its three 2026 meetings: Virtual Mid-Year Meeting, OPSTech, and Annual Meeting. These events bring together practitioners and executives to share insights, advance best practices, and strengthen the future of the industry.

The call for proposals is open to professionals across the security industry who are passionate about contributing practical knowledge, innovative ideas, and forward-looking perspectives. Proposed sessions may include case studies, emerging technology trends, research findings, skills-based workshops, or thought leadership presentations aligned with the mission and educational goals of each meeting.

“Speaking is one of the most meaningful ways professionals can give back to the industry that has supported their own growth,” said Alan Gillmore, IV, President of TMA. “Sharing experience and expertise not only strengthens our collective knowledge, it is also deeply rewarding—professionally and personally—to know you are helping others succeed and moving the industry forward.”
