What We’re Looking for in 2025 Color Vision Speakers

As we step into 2025 with ambitious plans and a renewed sense of purpose, Color Vision is thrilled to continue creating impactful spaces for women of color and allies to connect, learn, and grow. Our mission to amplify underrepresented voices and empower diverse communities remains at the forefront of all we do. One of the key components of our success lies in the dynamic speakers who bring our events to life. For this reason, we’re excited to open our call for speakers for the upcoming year. If you’re passionate about sharing your expertise, inspiring change, and fostering creativity, we want to hear from you!

About Color Vision

As a nonprofit organization, Color Vision operates with a mission-driven approach, dedicated to creating meaningful opportunities for women of color in the creative industries, entrepreneurship, and professional growth. While we would love to compensate our speakers, our nonprofit model depends on the generosity of volunteers who believe in our vision. This is why all of our speaker roles are voluntary, and we are immensely grateful to those who share their time and expertise to inspire our community.

What We Look For in Our Speakers

    Each Color Vision event has a specific focus or theme. These include topics like creative entrepreneurship, breaking barriers in the workplace, mental health and wellness, personal branding, and more. If your expertise aligns with any of these themes, we’re especially interested in hearing from you.
