Call For Speakers
CFP is OPEN!
Calling all Speakers and Presenters to submit a presentation here!
Without presenters, a conference is just a bunch of nerds milling about without any central topics to discuss and learn about - it falls flat.
If you’re curious about presenting but are unsure, come talk to us on Slack and we’ll sort it out!
The CFP Formally closes on Feb 1st, 2025.
