IglooConf is a two-day conference for all things Azure. 2024 is our sixth IglooConf, and is also unusually held as a summer conference, in the land of never-ending day.
We will bring ~20 world-class speakers to Helsinki, Finland, in the most illuminated time of the year - June. Our audience is hungry for everything, from Data & AI to Development to DevOps to Security to all things Azure.
IglooConf is the biggest Azure-only conference in Finland (maybe Nordics?), and very well regarded by the attendees and past speakers, with survey averages ranging between 4,4-4,6 out of 5 yearly. The full conference will be both streamed online (for free) and provided through our Youtube channel for later viewing. Our goal is to spread your know-how and expertise, and therefore the event is non-profit, with a relatively small entrance fee between 300 and 500 euros (early bird to regular).
IglooConf 2024: Midsummer will be held on the 6th and 7th of June 2024. As a speaker, you are treated to an appreciation dinner on the 5th and a party with other attendees on the 6th.
IglooConf is organized by Finland Azure User Group, a community of over 2500 Azure enthusiasts. As some of the organizers are speakers themselves, they aim to provide you the best possible conference experience as a speaker.
The session recordings for IglooConf 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, and 2018 are available at our YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/FinlandAzureUserGroup/videos?view=0&sort=dd&flow=grid
Please, check the website for views on the previous events, and once we have a few speakers confirmed, we shall update the page to reflect the Midsummer 2024.

You’re warmly welcome to submit your session(s) for IglooConf 2024: Midsummer.
Are you passionate about Azure? Outstanding! We've traditionally had a lot of fun between us speakers both during the conference and at the speaker events. Join us for this beautiful midsummer experience in Finland!
This is a two-track conference, and we want you to bring the talks you are most excited about. The audience is looking to understand better, to broaden their minds, and to us the key is your ability to deliver understanding to community in Finland. We will not hand you a mandatory slide template, apart from a simple slide with thank you's to sponsors.
The submissions can be anything, as long as they are relevant, Azure-focused, and interesting. Traditionally a bit over half of the audience are developers, so even deeply technical sessions have been favorably viewed. All presentations are in English, and the presentation slot will probably be ~50 minutes.
Also, feel free to submit more than 1 session, so we have some space to build the agenda, preferably 2 or 3, although no more than 5. We expect to confirm all speakers beginning of April.
