As the conference producer, this is something that I'm not happy with either. I invited several women presenters but schedules didn't work out or there was no interest. I asked some companies for speaker ideas from within their ranks and none of the candidates were women. I would definitely like to see more women involved (my other conferences have been a better balance), but it didn't turn out that way this time. Not planned, believe me. Re: female speakers.
