How proposals are selected
Jeff Pulver curates the event and reviews all proposals. Your proposal can be the seed of an idea that inspires a future session. Jeff will contact the people whose proposals he would like to incorporate into the conference.
Speaking opportunities are selected for the ideas, experience and relevance they bring to the conversation. Submitting a proposal does not guarantee acceptance. Sponsorship and exhibiting are separate from speaker selection and do not guarantee a speaking opportunity.
