Individuals with expertise in any area/technology may signup to speak. We welcome speakers of all experience levels and technology backgrounds, and we encourage first-time speakers.
Sessions are 50-minutes long with a 10-minute break between sessions.
Speakers are encouraged to submit talks on topics they're passionate about or experience on a daily basis. Blatant product/company pitches are frowned upon.
A speaker may submit multiple sessions; however, we typically only approve one session per speaker. Use the "Notes to Organizer" field for session-specific communication. We will do our best to accommodate your session preference but we must balance the schedule across multiple tracks and avoid overlapping sessions.
Approvals will be sent out on a rolling basis. This year will be approving sessions as they are submitted to accommodate the travel plans of speakers from out of town. Note: speakers who submit multiple talks may have their approved talk change later in order to balance the schedule and avoid overlaps. However, we will make every effort to minimize such changes and will let you know as early as possible.
Approved speakers are notified by email. If your session is selected and you are unable to attend, please contact us immediately so we can update the schedule.
This is a FREE event, hosted by volunteers, with free meals and refreshments supplied by sponsors. We do not pay speaker fees and also don't cover travel and/or hotel costs; however, we work with local hotels to obtain discounted rates. Hotel information will be published closer to the event date.
Speakers are encouraged to attend our Speaker Dinner the night before the event. We also host a post-event party for both speakers and attendees, and we highly encourage speakers to attend both events.
