Every year we receive hundreds of proposals for our Conferences and we have to make a selection based on a number of reasons:

• How it fits in the agenda
• Relevance of the topic/technology
• Expertise of the speaker
• Description of the proposal

Preference will be given to proposals of sessions:

• in English
• advanced level content
• not previously performed at other conferences

What do our attendees look for?

• Showcase of technical excellence, latest research and cutting-edge technologies
• Hands-on knowledge that could be useful for their job
• Best practices and case studies that can help them become better developers
• Code! Remember to show some lines of code and some demos
• Inspirational talks and visions on how technology is shaping the future
• Talks with great contents, which do not hold a hidden marketing pitch

When will we contact you?
There are 3 possible outcomes for your proposal(s):

1. Approved: You will receive an email confirming your talk is selected. The organisers may contact speakers in 3 rounds as they announce new speakers on their website.
   
2. Waiting for approval: Your proposal is still under review. This process can last up to 2 months before the conference date.
   
3. Not accepted: You will receive an email informing you that your proposal is rejected. Again, you may receive this up to 2 months before the conference.
   

The organisers try to contact speakers as soon as the Call for Papers closes but finalising the agenda and scheduling backup talks can take time. Speakers should expect to wait up to 2 months before knowing if their proposal is approved, waiting for approval or not accepted. The organisers are open to providing feedback on rejected proposals if contacted.
