Bird's eye view of a soccer stadium with the words: OpenText Business Network World Championship - Call for speakers...indicating it's an OpenText World call for speakers

Every year, OpenText World brings together organizations that are transforming the way business gets done. This year, Business Network is assembling what we hope will be our strongest lineup of customer stories yet, and we are looking for customers willing to share their journey.

Whether you have modernized B2B integration, accelerated ERP transformation, improved supply chain collaboration, strengthened compliance, enhanced logistics visibility, or built the foundation for AI-powered operations, we would love to hear your story.

Think of this year’s call for speakers as the Business Network World Championship. Four groups. One goal: finding the most compelling customer stories to take the stage at OpenText World 2026 in Orlando.

Why speak at OpenText World?

The best conference sessions are not product demonstrations. They are stories from organizations that tackled difficult challenges, transformed critical business processes, and achieved measurable results.

Speaking at OpenText World gives you an opportunity to:

  • Showcase innovation and leadership in front of industry peers and experts
  • Raise the visibility of your business and team
  • Share practical lessons learned from your transformation journey
  • Help shape the conversation around digital trade, supply chains, compliance, and AI
  • Strengthen your partnership with OpenText

Customer speakers will also receive a complimentary conference pass and hotel accommodation.

Meet the groups



The challenge: How do you modernize without disrupting the business?




The challenge: How do you transform a collection of partners into a connected business community?



The challenge: How do you turn compliance from a burden into a business advantage?



The challenge: How do you move from automation to intelligence?

What makes a winning story?

The strongest speaker proposals usually include:

  • A clear business challenge
  • A meaningful transformation journey
  • Results that matter
  • Practical lessons others can learn from
  • A vision for what’s next

A perfect story is not required.

What matters most is authenticity, relevance, and a point of view that helps others solve similar challenges.
Many of the best sessions at OpenText World are about people, decisions, lessons learned, and business outcomes and not about technology.

Ready for kickoff?

Business Network is looking for customers who want to share their experiences and inspire others. From integration and collaboration to logistics, compliance, finance, and AI, we are assembling a diverse lineup of stories that showcase real-world innovation and measurable results.

Every championship team has a story.

What’s yours?
