Description

DevFest is a great, welcoming place to share your ideas and gain new skills and we would like people from all backgrounds to take part in speaking. We are especially keen on welcoming people who identify as female, junior developers and people from minority backgrounds to increase the diversity of ideas and personalities present in our group.

If you are new to public speaking in this format we may be able to provide mentoring and/or slide review from more experienced presenters. You don’t have to be super technical or have many years of experience! You just have to have something interesting to discuss or teach. If you have a new idea or unique format that fits with the general themes of a GDG DevFest please fill out a proposal or reach out to anyone in the organiser team to discuss.

If you would like to see examples for speaker profiles please check out last years DevFest website. The details collected in ConfEngine about your bio and presentation will be posted to our public website.

All DevFest speakers and attendees are expected to act in accordance with the GDG code of conduct  and the YOW Code of Conduct.  

Please see the submission guidelines before submitting your proposal.
