Be a speaker at nor(DEV): con 2027!

We are so back! Join us again in February 2027 at the Kings Centre; for our 13th annual conference!

This conference is an annual gathering of a truly amazing community and a celebration of East Anglia's technology sector and it's people (maybe that's you, maybe you're from further afield!). We are a not-for-profit event, run by volunteers, with a core mission to bring high-quality technical content and invaluable networking opportunities to Norfolk.

This even is informal, on purpose. The focus is "good vibes and learning together", so we create a space for genuine connection, not what you might be used to at some networking events. Our conferences have been described as having a "unique community feel" by (inter)national speakers and we take great pride in ensuring this is a gathering of friends.

You'll be speaking to a diverse audience that spans the entire regional tech industry. The crowd is a mix of:

• Seasoned professional developers, looking to keep their skills sharp.
• Students and teachers, who are actively welcomed through free ticket schemes.
• Entrepreneurs and business leaders
• Professionals focused on the "human" side of tech, such as team dynamics & wellbeing.
• Enthusiasts and junior developers eager to learn and find their next opportunity.

Our attendees are curious, supportive, and appreciate talks that are accessible and interesting, regardless of their own expertise level

A great proposal for nor(DEV): con...

...is about sharing knowledge, not a sales pitch
...offers practical, real-world insights
...considers our diverse audience
...shows your passion for the subject!

Talk Formats & Topics

We are looking for proposals for two types of sessions:

• Standard Sessions (40 minutes): A presentation (or live code) on a topic
• Workshops (3h/6h): A hands-on, deep-dive session designed for practical skill-building

We have three tracks on our main conference days and are looking for talks that fit into the following categories:

• The Dev Track(s): The technical core of our conference. We're interested in all aspects of software and product development: Frontend, Backend, Full-Stack, Mobile, Game, DevOps, Data Science, AI, & Design Patterns
• The Panel. Track: We are looking for individuals interested in joining discussions on the big topics in tech today, which may include AI, development trends, and leadership.
• The Business & Career Track: Startup life, business/product strategy, project management, team leadership, the "human" side of tech

We want to actively encourage first-time speakers, and can't wait to see your ideas!
