CMF 2026 · APPLY TO SPEAK · DEADLINE APRIL 1, 20—
The Concierge Medicine Forum is built on one idea: physicians learn best from people who have actually done the work. If you have real-world experience in concierge or membership medicine — what you've built, what you've learned, what you'd do differently — this is the room for it.
Your story belongs on this stage.

CMF is an educational leadership conference. The stage is reserved for people with something real to teach.
Every speaker at CMF earns their place through experience and expertise — not through a sponsorship check. Sessions are educational in nature. The stage is not used for product pitches or promotional presentations. If your proposal is grounded in what you've actually built, struggled with, or learned, it belongs here.

Your proposal doesn't need to be polished or perfect. It simply needs to be honest, practical, and grounded in real-world experience. We read every submission and select faculty based on what we believe will serve this audience best. CMF grows because experienced physicians and leaders are willing to share what they've built, what they've learned, and what they're seeing across the field. That generosity is what makes this conference worth attending — and worth speaking at.
