KCD New York is thrilled to extend an open invitation to potential speakers of all experience levels and diverse backgrounds. We're committed to creating a dynamic and inclusive event, and your unique perspectives are what make this possible. Whether you're a seasoned presenter or stepping onto the stage for the first time, we warmly encourage you to share your insights and stories with us.

Understanding that public speaking can be daunting, especially for newcomers, we're happy to provide mentorship and speaker coaching to help you confidently prepare and deliver your talk.

We aim to nurture a supportive and engaging atmosphere where every speaker feels empowered to grow and succeed.

Any talks related to Kubernetes and CNCF ecosystem are welcome.
