Smith's session, entitled ‘The View from Vancouver: What London 2012 and Glasgow 2014 can learn from the Vancouver experience', will be held on 5 July at the SECC in Glasgow.
"The insights and learnings that Vancouver acquired from hosting the Winter Olympics will be invaluable to the UK events industry and will help destinations, venues, agencies and suppliers capitalise on the forthcoming Olympic and Commonwealth Games," she said.
"It will give the industry an understanding of what London, Glasgow and the rest of Britain can really expect when a major Games roadshow rolls into town."
