Call for Speakers

Speaking at a WordCamp is a great way to give back to the community, so if you have some knowledge you think might be worth sharing, please consider applying to speak at WordCamp Finland 2016 in Helsinki!

Talk Format & Submission Guidelines

The deadline for submissions is February 19th.

If you’d like to propose multiple topics, please submit the form multiple times, once for each topic.

Full-length sessions will be about 30 minutes long with 10-15 additional minutes for questions from the audience. We will also include a few 10-15 minute lightning talks. If you think your talk could work as a lightning talk, please let us know. Like last year, we have a one track schedule. Apply now and let us know your story.

Kansainvälisen yleisön vuoksi toivomme ensisijaisesti englanninkielisiä esityksiä, mutta osa voi olla myös suomenkielisiä. Hakemusten määräaika on 19.2.
