We welcome submissions covering the 3 major public clouds - AWS, Azure and GCP in addition to topics for on-premises and hybrid environments.

On Friday we have a full day workshop (training day) and on Saturday the session length is 60 minutes.

DataSaturday Oslo strives for diversity and transparency. You can read our CoC here.

Our venue is commonly accessible.

We welcome any and all sessions on data as described above, and we want you as a speaker to know that we will additionally give precedence to the following in our selection process:

  • Speakers residing in the Nordic countries 
  • First-time speakers. We will offer newcomers an experienced mentor to help them prepare.
  • Diversity (i.e. diversity in gender, race and ethnicity, disability and neuro-diversity)
  • Diversity in topics and technologies 


Since this is a free event for the attendees and the event is run by volunteers in their spare time we are not in a position to reimburse travel expenses for, or pay our speakers.

Please note that this is an in-person event. Remote sessions will not be considered.
