Do you have a groundbreaking idea, a revolutionary project, an inspiring story, or some interesting thoughts you want to share with the world? The stage could be yours!

We're on the lookout for interesting ideas and fresh perspectives from everyone in the community. 

We want to hear all voices, including those that may speak less frequently at similar events; whether you’re in a field not typically thought of as a technology field, you’re in a large, traditional organisation, or you’re the only person at your organisation with your background, we are interested in your unique experience.

And if you are a first time speaker and/or from an under-represented group in technology, we are happy to provide support to help you submit and deliver your talk. We have volunteers who can provide mentoring and coaching if you want it!

What topics will be covered in this edition of Fast Flow Conf?

The conference will continue to lead the way in sharing practitioners’ real experiences, emerging practice and new research in the study of Team Topologies and flow. We’ve had 4 sell-out editions to date, so this winning formula remains.

As outlined in the book there are a large number of topics which fall under Team Topologies and fast flow. Don't forget, we are practitioner-focused and you can also submit more than one idea.

Suggested areas of interest and previous events have covered the following areas:

• Getting started (with Team Topologies & fast flow)
• Team types / team structures, Enabling teams, Platforms teams, Complicated sub-system teams
• Team cognitive load, Sensing and evolving, Organisational dynamics, Conway's Law
• Modes of interaction, Team APIs, Culture / ways of working, Unblocking flow
• User Needs Mapping, Independent Service Heuristics, Defining boundaries
• Remote interactions
• Splitting the monolith, Architecture, Technology enabling fast flow
• Business & strategy, Leadership, Change Management for Team Topologies & fast flow
• Case studies & examples
• The future of Team Topologies & fast flow

The dedicated Agentic AI for Teams track asks: what actually happens when teams start working alongside AI agents? Where does it go wrong? And what does Team Topologies thinking tell us that the hype merchants won't?

We invite proposals that share honest, real-world experiences of Agentic AI adoption; the good, the bad, and the organisational dynamics that made the difference. Whether you're a leader who's navigated the strategy, a practitioner who's lived the reality, or a team that's learned the hard way, we want to hear from you.

The Agentic AI for Teams & Fast Flow track topics we ask for talks on are:

• Agentic AI adoption case studies — warts and all
• Team structures for human-agent collaboration
• Cognitive load implications of AI-assisted teams
• Governing AI agents: safety, trust, and accountability
• AI agents and interaction modes: collaboration, facilitation, X-as-a-Service
• AI agents and the software delivery lifecycle: from code to production
• Measuring the impact of Agentic AI on flow of change
• When AI agents fail: organisational anti-patterns
• Building enabling teams for AI capability uplift
• Conway's Law in an agentic world
• The CTO/CIO perspective: strategy, risk, and readiness

Our speaking slots are split into 30 minute sessions.
