Sign up for a Lightning Talk

To submit your own Lightning Talk, there are several steps necessary:

  1. Sign up as a user of this wiki ("Create account" link on the top right of the page)
  2. Fill in details here that describes your Lightning Talk
  3. Upload your slides somewhere and place a link to the slides into the lightning talks table. If you don't put your slides here then they won't be displayed, you'll just have an identification slide on the day.
  4. One week before the event: Ensure the details are correct and the pdf is working
  5. You need to be there 20 minutes before your talk!

Timeslots

Please have a look at the session schedule of the lightning talk slots. The lightning talks have a slot of 5 minutes including setup (but note that you won't be able to connect your laptop to the projector). We have assigned one hour slot according to the people who indicated their interest to the team to give a lightning slot. First come, first serve.

Some more rules:

  • Technical talks are preferred (no sales pitches)
  • Only one lightning talk per person/project/group per day
  • PDF slides only
  • Final time slot assignment only if we receive your slides. Please add slides at least one week before the event. Preliminary slides are okay, you can update your slides until 10:00 am on the day before the talk.
