May 07,2023I was approached to speak at their conference recently. On probing for details, I was sent a link. It quickly became apparent to me that this was a scam. I asked questions about speaker fees which is commonly understood terminology for how much a speaker gets paid. They got back with early bird discounts after which I understood that they were asking speakers to pay them ( a huge amount imho) to speak. Please be vary. Leading conferences usually are well recognized. I do not want to say more here as they may change their modus operandi based on what I’ve shared. Please do not engage; this is a fake conference without credentials. An event management company only executes on behalf of someone else. So there is nothing here for you as a speaker. Even if the conference does go ahead - what is it really? Please ask yourself some questions and research. Having spoken at many conferences, I was quick to spot the signs - This is a scam!

Jan 04,2023Hello, I was invited to Speak at one of their conferences in Paris. They chased and chased and chased me to register and make the payment. My life circumstances changed and I was unable to make it. I notified them over 3 months prior to the program dates and requested a refund. As should be the professional thing to do. I have yet to receive a refund let alone a response. They have pretty much ghosted me. January 5th, 2023: Update - as you can see below, they responded to my review and asked that I email them. Which I did right away, and again no response. January 8th, 2023: Update - Please note that I have sent multiple emails to said email address. If you are truly committed to correcting this, please resolve it. Otherwise please stop wasting my time any further.

Dec 22,2022They may be a gaggle of scamsters based out of India who promise but in no way deliver. I came about to attend their convention and it was in no way as described. In addition they cheated one in all my fellow speakers and denied refund. Customer service is pathetic.

Nov 19,2022They are really good at hosting virtual conferences but they lack in few things so won't give them a 5, Their conference was quite informative I've attend their AI conference and all the other speakers were really good, I advice them to improve their customer service a little more and hire better employees for coordinating with speakers.

Sep 29,2022At the Global Summit on Mental health and Psychology Expo held in the beautiful city of Paris, France It was a great pleasure to meet a lot of friends and collaborators from around the world. An honor to give the opening Plenary talk and chair a session in this very interesting event. A great thanks to my friends, Professor S, and other organizing committee members of STAR Conferences for the invitation and their great hospitality. It was also a pleasure to meet in this meeting various collaborators, Ph.D. students, and Postdocs, who have been members of Psychology, and Mental Health Experts in Paris, France.

Sep 19,2022I'm waiting over a year on a refund, I'll never get it. It's a scam nothing more.

Aug 31,2022I have been contacted several times, inviting me to present. I have queried whether they would be paying me a speaker fee (creating and delivering a conference slot does require quite a lot of work) and was then sent a link to purchase my speaker slot (at a higher cost than the price someone would pay to attend the conference). They are supposedly a not for profit company, however are charging high fees for people to attend these conferences (including speakers) and no one has been able to answer where the profit is going. I have spoken at conferences and events in the past for a nominal or no fee, where I have felt the organisation was legitimate, and a worthwhile cause. I have never been asked to pay $600 (plus travel and accommodation costs) to speak. Please be wary about this company

Aug 25,2022I was too contacted by two different profiles on LinkedIn to attend a star conference in Rome. Both profiles didn’t seem to belong to a real person. The description of the conference did not make sense, nor does their website. They immediately ask you to pay a fee. It’s a scam!

Jul 21,2022In October of 2021, I received a message on LinkedIn from an employee at STAR Conferences. They invited me to present at an addiction conference in London, UK, July 21-22, 2022. I was so excited as I've never presented internationally, and immediately submitted my abstract. A few months later, I got a message confirming my abstract had been approved. But recently, I started to wonder if this whole thing is a scam... Let me share why: I received my confirmation of my session in March 2022 and paid the conference registration. In my excitement to present at an international conference, I shared the joyous news right here on LinkedIn. In May 22, STAR Conferences reached about the possibility of moving the conference in October on account of COVID-19. I checked my calendar, blocked the dates, and requested they inform me if and when this change occurs. I was informed that a decision would be make in 24 hours....that was on May 24, 2022! To date, I have still not received any communications about the move of the conference or my request for a refund for the registration fee. In fact, TODAY, is when I was originally supposed to be presenting in London! smh I feel as though I've given plenty of opportunities for this situation to be resolved and will now seek support from my bank to recoup the registration fee. If you have been contacted by STAR Conferences, or are thinking about submitting a proposal to them, I urge you to be cautious. This is a story of my personal experience with what appears to be a conference scam. I hope by sharing my story, it will help someone else. It never crossed my mind to be concerned about the conference being real. I mean heck, they reached out to me on LinkedIn!!! I consider this space a professional world, protected from schemes or tricks. This experience has been valuable, as I will now have a new eye for evaluating future speaking engagements. I also hope this post, inspires others who have had a similar experience, to share your story with others! We've got to help each other identify companies with questionable operating practices. #potentialscam #STARConferences

Apr 25,2022This appears to be a scam - You are invited to give a presentation in your specialist field and then they chase you for payment to the conference. Avoid.

Dec 06,2021Scam. Approached me via LinkedIn to be a speaker in a completely unrelated to me field - there is no way any credible organisation would do that, and then kept insisting for me to pay for conference fees. Furthermore, couple of days later another LinkedIn user wrote exactly same message to me again, but this time advertising conference in another country. Don’t pay them any money, stay away

Mar 12,2021Star Conferences is totally a staggering gathering coordinator. I have really enjoyed my presentation since it moved me to be courageous and being a brave and straightforward I can rouse individuals that work for me. I was also planning to attend the upcoming event of Star conferences

Mar 12,2021Attended STAR Robotics Conferences in the USA. The sessions are very interesting and speaker topics are well addressed with both personal and professional branding with prioritized themes and topics. Get exposed to better ways of doing things...

Mar 12,2021Attending STAR conferences is a great way to help to develop our research career. They offer the chance to network and meet new collaborators or co-authors, learn about the latest research developments, and understand the bigger picture of our field.

Mar 12,2021STAR Conferences is a great platform for the researchers. I was the invited speaker for Artificial Intelligence Conference in 2018, USA. It was a great experience. And this year also I am part of it and thinking of best future collaboration.

Dec 17,2023I was told the event was changed to virtual only after I emailed about it. I never was refunded the $100 difference in price that I paid for the in person conference. They stole $100 from me and now the email I was corresponding to conveniently doesn't work.
