List of Invited Speakers at CP conferences

This list excludes talks by ACP award winners (e.g. by Jean-Charles Règin and Tias Guns in 2013, which are plenary but not in the choice of the programme chair and committee.

This list does include keynote talks given across colocated conferences, where additional constraints may have been made on the choice of speaker by demands of interesting two conferences.

I've compiled this list as best I can but may have made mistakes.
