Unique Sessions

One of our aims for this conference is not only to give our attendees and you a brilliant experience but also to create an outstanding store of material for people to continue to learn from. If your session is exactly the same as in a different event then we are not able to increase the knowledge sharing, only duplicate it.


Speaker Confirmation

The call for speakers will be closing on the 4th of December 2026.

We will inform all speakers chosen and otherwise by the end of December 2026.


Session Length

Sessions will be 50 minutes in length. This allows for some time for questions and answers during or after the Session and makes it easier for us to create a schedule. (We have a separate Community Hub Zone at the Venue for any kind of discussion, where we ask you to stay after your session.


Session Language

The primary conference language is English, the majority of the sessions will be in English.


Session Types

We are accepting sessions in the following "types"

“HowTo” Presentations (50 min incl. 5-10 min Q&A)

“After you watched this, you will be able to.... " (50 min incl. 5-10 min Q&A)

“After listening, you will understand ...........” (50 min incl. 5-10 min Q&A)


How we select speakers

We have again established a community advisory board that will review and discuss your submissions. There is no first in first serve, or send as much sessions as possible, we like quality and a minimum of two sessions each Speaker.
