FOR SPEAKERS
GENERAL QUESTIONS
ADDITIONAL IMPORTANT INFORMATION
We accept:
Keynote: For talks with the widest appeal, designed to kick off the day or close it out with impact. Keynotes set the tone for the entire conference. Due to limited slots, all Keynote submissions will automatically be considered for standard session slots as well. If you have an idea that speaks to the whole community, we want to hear it.
Lightning Talk (20 min): A fast, focused talk. One sharp idea, zero fluff. Perfect for a quick insight, a lesson learned, or a demo that doesn’t need a full session.
Session (40 min): The classic conference talk. Dive deep into a topic, share your experience, or walk through a technical concept that developers can take back to their work immediately.
Workshop (80 min): A hands-on, interactive session where attendees build or learn something by doing. You lead, they follow along. Come with a clear outcome and leave the audience with something they didn’t have before.
Panel Discussion: A moderated stage conversation between a selected group of experts in a full conference room. Submit your topic, and we will work with you to find the right co-panelists and a moderator from within the speaker lineup.
Unconference-roundtable: An intimate, circle-format discussion for 30 to 50 people where everyone participates, not just watches. No stage, no slides. If your topic sparks conversation more than a presentation, this is your format.
Office Hours: An informal 1-on-1 or small group session where attendees come to you with questions. No slides needed. Think of it as an open conversation at a table. You are the expert; they bring the problems. Usually planned if you put your booth.
Once the Call for Speakers closes, our independent Program Committee begins the voting process. Because we host multiple events, each track has its own dedicated Program Committee. This means industry experts in your specific tech stack will review your pitch. They vote to select the most valuable topics for their community.
Absolutely! We strongly encourage first-time speakers to apply. We values fresh perspectives, and we provide support throughout the process—from proposal feedback to speaker guidance, click here for public speaking tips and guidelines specific to our events that will help you in preparation for your talk. Confidence comes with practice—and this could be your first of many great talks!
If you are an accepted speaker, you do not need to buy a ticket. Once your talk is officially selected, we will provide a special speaker visa letter that you can add to your visa application.
If you submitted a talk but have an urgent visa interview right now, you can buy an attendee ticket and fill out this Typeform with your personal details to get your visa letter early. If your talk gets selected later, just email us at speakers@nextappcon.com. We will fully refund your ticket or help you transfer it to a colleague.
Our CFS page on Sessionize describes the talk guidelines. Please visit the page to find out the required guidelines. You can find all our submission guidelines and session formats on our official Call for Speakers page. We included specific tips on how to make your title clear, how to write your learning outcomes, and how to share your experience with the Program Committee. Please visit our Sessionize page link to read the full guidelines and submit your talk.
