keynotes
Keynotes are live, interactive learning events that bring Cornell thought leadership to an online audience, frequently drawing thousands of viewers from around the world. Personally engage with working professionals, lifelong learners, and the intellectually curious by exploring hot topics and timely issues.
Keynotes help you:
- Expand your reach to fresh audiences
- Showcase your thought leadership
- Promote your research
- Engage with alumni and the Cornell community
- Connect education with industry
The process of transforming an interesting idea into an impactful Keynote event starts by scheduling a date and completing an intake form to gather details that support event registration pages. We collaboratively plan, prepare for, and finally run the event. Post-production includes sharing a registration report and link to the recording.
