The American Association of Credit Union Leagues (AACUL) is now accepting speaker proposals for its 2026 AACUL Winter Conference, taking place November 30 through December 3, 2026, in Nashville, Tennessee.
AACUL’s Winter Conference is the premier, invitation-only gathering of credit union League System leaders, bringing together approximately 250 league presidents, board chairs, executive teams, and key partners from across the country for strategic dialogue and peer collaboration.
The conference is centered on the theme “Align. Amplify. Advance.” and provides a unique platform for thought leaders to engage directly with decision-makers shaping the future of the credit union movement.
AACUL is seeking dynamic, forward-looking speakers to present in general sessions and specialized peer group discussions designed for distinct leadership audiences, including league presidents, communicators, advocates, foundation leaders, and league service corporation executives.
“We are looking for speakers who can bring bold ideas, practical insights, and real-world strategies to help league leaders navigate a rapidly evolving environment,” said AACUL President Brad Miller. “Our goal is to equip attendees with actionable takeaways they can implement immediately within their organizations.”
Proposed sessions should focus on key issues impacting the credit union system, including:
- Advocacy and regulatory trends
- Public policy and political engagement
- Technology and cybersecurity
- Innovation in financial services
- Collaboration and organizational growth
AACUL welcomes a variety of session formats, including keynote presentations, panel discussions, workshops, and case studies that highlight proven approaches and measurable impact.
Selected speakers will gain the opportunity to share their expertise with a highly targeted national audience of league leaders, while also participating in meaningful networking and collaboration opportunities throughout the conference. Additional benefits include promotional visibility through AACUL communications and complimentary conference registration.
The deadline to submit a speaker proposal is July 3, 2026.
