Call for regular sessions for DIFINITY 2026 is open now, and we look forward to seeing you all there. There are a few things to consider before submission:

• Session times are 45 minutes. 
• Submit sessions in your expertise area. The audience loves to hear from experienced people in that field.
  
• Add a detailed session abstract. It would be really hard to decide what to cover in your talk with just a single or two lines of an abstract. Explain the session and maybe include an agenda in detail.
• Submit as many sessions as you can. Don’t limit yourself to one or two sessions; submit as many as possible. Sometimes, a topic has a very high competition, and another topic has zero submissions, which can be your chance of getting a session.
• Sessions at all levels are needed, from Beginner to Expert.
• This year, we are holding the Difinity conference in Australia and New Zealand. In order to be considered for each, you need to submit sessions in the Sessionize call for speakers for each city.
