In the event dashboard, navigate to the People Speakers section to get started. There are two ways you can add speakers.

Note the Speaker still needs to register for the event this way. Once you add your speaker, you can tag them to scheduled items you have built out. Remember, you can embed your schedule anywhere you can place in the iFrame. This is really helpful for tapping into your speaker's audience. If they see their favorite person speaking at your even it will help with your event's reach.
