TeXperts: St. Louis Thought Leadership Workshops

TechSTL's newest program supporting thought leadership development, public speaking, and media relations for the tech industry

About this Event

TechSTL is proud to present the TeXperts Thought Leadership Series as part of the St. Louis Summer of Open Innovation and continuing into the Fall / Winter of 2025. This high-impact workshop series will empower business and technology leaders to amplify their voice, sharpen their message, and expand their influence on a global stage.

Whether you’re launching a speaking campaign, publishing insight-driven content, or hoping to compete on the global conference circuit as an industry expert — TeXperts is here to support your thought leadership journey.

The series will explore three key pillars:

• Content Development – Learn how to distill your expertise into compelling content formats including articles, op-eds, LinkedIn posts, videos, and keynote frameworks.
• Content Delivery – Refine your presence across public speaking, media interviews, podcasts, panels, and virtual presentations with guidance from public speaking coaches and presentation strategists.
• Industry Positioning – Discover how to strategically position yourself as a go-to expert in your field, leveraging PR tools, trend forecasting, influencer strategies, and thought leadership platforms.

Led by top regional experts in public relations, emerging tech, media production, and platform building, each session is designed to give you the tools, confidence, and strategy to own your narrative — and lead the conversation.
