We're soliciting proposals for 30 minute presentations and Ignite style lightning talks. -### Even if you don't propose, please consider {{< event_link page="proposals" text="commenting on proposals submitted by others" >}} +A selection committee will review all proposed talks. Submitters will receive an email update before the program is announced. All proposals must be received by Thursday June 30th. Selected proposals will be announced within a few weeks of the closing date. -Our main criteria to make it to the top selection are: +Are you new to public speaking? We can provide guidance/coaching for new speakers upon request. -- _original content_: content not yet presented at other conferences, or a new angle to an existing problem -- _new presenters_: people who are new to the space and have insightful stuff to say; we want to hear everybody's voice -- _no vendor pitches_: as much as we value vendors and sponsors, we just don't think this is the right forum. You can demo at your table or during Open Space. +There are three types of sessions that you can propose. This call for proposals covers types 1 and 2. -How to submit a proposal: Send an email to [{{< email_proposals >}}] with the following information

-Rules: - + +### Selection Guidelines + +Choosing talks is part art, part science; here are some factors we consider when trying to assemble the best possible program for our local audience: + +* Broad appeal: How will your talk play out in a room of people with a variety of backgrounds? Technical deep dives need more levels to provide value for the whole room, some of whom might not use your specific tool. +* New local presenters: You are the only one who can tell your story. We are very interested in the challenges and successes being experienced in our local Philadelphia area communities. +* Under-represented voices: We want to hear all voices, including those that may speak less frequently at similar events. Whether you're in a field not typically thought of as a technology field, you're in a large, traditional organization, or you're the only person at your organization with your background, we are interested in your unique experience. +* Original content: We prefer talks not already presented at another event, especially another one in the local area or one available in recorded form. +* No third-party submissions: If a PR firm or your marketing department is proposing the talk, you've already shown that as a speaker you're distant from the process. This is a small community-driven event, and speakers need to be directly engaged with the organizers and attendees. +* No vendor pitches: We value vendors and sponsors, however we cannot accept a talk that appears to be a pitch for your product. If you'd like to demo your product or service, please consider sponsoring the event to secure your company a table. + +### Code of Conduct + +Please review the event code of conduct. + +### Travel Expenses + +If your employer does not cover travel expenses you incur as a speaker at Devopsdays Philadelphia the conference will help. Speakers receive free conference tickets and should not incur out-of-pocket travel expenses in order to participate. diff --git a/content/events/2016-philadelphia/registration.md b/content/events/2016-philadelphia/registration.md index f8680b478d1..e8f31fa82f4 100644 --- a/content/events/2016-philadelphia/registration.md +++ b/content/events/2016-philadelphia/registration.md @@ -7,8 +7,4 @@ type = "event" +++ -

+Additional à la carte sponsorships are also possible: -DevOpsDays is a self-organizing conference for practitioners that depends on sponsorships.

Sponsors are encouraged to represent themselves by actively participating and engaging with the attendees as peers. Any attendee also has the opportunity to demo products/projects as part of an open space session. -
-Gold sponsors get a full table and Silver sponsors a shared table where they can interact with those interested to come visit during breaks. All attendees are welcome to propose any subject they want during the open spaces, but this is a community-focused conference, so heavy marketing will probably work against you when trying to make a good impression on the attendees. -
-The best thing to do is send engineers to interact with the experts at DevOpsDays on their own terms. -
