Sessionize has become the backbone of much of the global speaking ecosystem; but most community members only ever see one slice of what it can do.

This fast‑paced session takes you through the full lifecycle:
- from a speaker crafting standout submissions,
- to an organiser designing a fair, efficient Call for Speakers process,
- to a community builder using Sessionize to elevate underrepresented voices.

You’ll learn how to optimise your speaker profile, use its Playbook to track opportunities and streamline event workflows, and create curated speaker lists that promote women and emerging talent.

Whether you’re submitting your first talk, running your tenth conference, or building a platform to uplift others, this session shows how Sessionize can accelerate careers, strengthen events, and shape a more inclusive tech community.

This session is platform‑agnostic and focuses on practical, real‑world use of Sessionize from three perspectives: speaker, organiser, and community builder. It includes no sales content and can be delivered in 30, 45, or 60 minutes.

Examples used will be anonymised and based on publicly available features and workflows. The session also highlights inclusive practices and community‑driven approaches to increasing representation, including the creation of curated speaker lists to support women and underrepresented voices.

The session can be adapted to fit each event's own theme, format, or Call for Speaker guidelines.
