PROJECT LIGHTNING TALKS - TUESDAY, 10 JUNE

Projects will have the opportunity to deliver lightning talks lasting 5-minutes during KubeCon + CloudNativeCon. This platform offers projects the chance to showcase their recent updates, features, and other highlights to their peers. The project lightning talks will be included in the conference schedule and are based on availability.

Because the focus of these talks is on the project and not a specific speaker, complimentary passes are not provided and we recommend selecting a speaker who is already attending the event.

A maximum of 1 speaker is allowed per Project Lightning Talk. Please do not submit more.

MAINTAINER TRACK - TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY, 10-11 JUNE 

Leaders of CNCF Graduated and Incubating Projects and Activities (such as members of Working Groups or TAGs) can submit one 30-minute Maintainer Track session during KubeCon + CloudNativeCon. Participation is subject to availability, and submitting does not guarantee selection.

Each speaker can participate in only one Maintainer Track session. This does not count against the speaker limits for KubeCon + CloudNativeCon standard CFP or Contribfest.

Requirements for Submission

Graduated/Incubating Projects:

To submit, you must be a maintainer on the list for a CNCF Graduated or Incubating project.

The actual speaker(s) do not need active maintainer status but should be contributors to the project.

Sandbox projects are not eligible for Maintainer Track sessions.

All Others:

To submit, you must be a chair or technical lead of a CNCF TAG, a lead for a Kubernetes SIG, CNCF or K8s Working Group, or Subproject.

A maximum of 5 speakers are allowed per Maintainer Track session.
