PlatformCon is the world’s largest platform engineering conference with over 50k+ people in the platform and DevOps world coming together online and in-person. The conference offers a full week of programming, featuring over 150 curated talks, more than 30 hours of hands-on platform engineering workshops, and two in-person days in London and New York. Attendees can explore every facet of platform engineering in whichever format works best for them.

The event runs from June 22nd until June 26th.

This CfP applies exclusively to the PlatformCon virtual program. There will not be a separate CfP for Live Days in London and New York, as those sessions are invite-only.

This Call for Proposals (CfP) for virtual talks and workshops closed on February 22nd.

We will inform speakers by March 17 whether their proposal has been accepted.

Note: This CfP applies exclusively to the PlatformCon virtual program. There will not be a separate CfP for Live Days in London and New York, as those sessions are invite-only.

How to get your proposal accepted

  • Check our CfP page on PlatformCon.com first
  • Create a short and impactful talk title (max 90-character count, while 70 is optimal) 
  • Write a short description for your talk that summarizes your idea (max 250-character count including spaces)
  • Write an abstract (max 800-character count including spaces) that expands on your description and clarifies your content. These must be written in the third person
    (In this talk, John Doe discusses) NOT (In this talk, I discuss)
  • Feel free to include bullet points in the abstract to help convey key points, what the audience can expect to learn/hear about, or key takeaways
  • Keep in mind the title, description, and abstract will be published along with your talk on our website, so make sure it is flawless without any spelling or grammatical errors
  • No product pitches allowed. These are not accepted. For vendors, we recommend checking sponsorship opportunities.
  • Submit your talk on your behalf
  • While you can submit multiple proposals, we recommend you focus on the topic you’re most passionate about

Your abstract will be rejected if not proofread and publication-ready.
