Do you have knowledge that would benefit the WordPress community? WordCamp Nagpur is now accepting speaker applications.

Speakers are at the core of every WordCamp providing a chance to be involved. We’re looking for talks on a variety of topics to cover different stages of the WordPress journey from beginner to expert.

Talks & Workshop for all skill levels will be considered, and a presentation on things you learned setting up your very first website can be just as valuable as a technical walk-through of how custom fields are implemented within WordPress.

WordCamp Nagpur speaker applications was closed on Sunday 30th June 2019. Schedule will be published Shortly.

Once submissions close, the selection process will commence and we’ll contact everyone as soon as possible via email to confirm details once our voting has been finalised.

Topics

What We Look For

If you haven’t spoken at a conference before, don’t let that hold you back! We do not require you to be famous, or a “guru”, or have a special certification, all we ask is that you be able to present your chosen topic passionately and respectfully.

We do have some general guidelines for talks, though, and here they are: Your talk should be…

• directly related to WordPress, or immediately applicable and relevant to our audience
• respectful of the WordPress community, the WordCamp code of conduct, and the GPL
• something that interests you, that you want to share!

Event Details

• Talks will be 20 minutes in length. Followed by 10 to 15 minutes of Q&A.
• Talks will be on Sunday, 11th August 2019.
• We plan to record all the talks and post the videos to WordPress.tv. Speakers will need to sign an A/V release form prior to giving their presentation.
• Speakers will be offered free admission to WordCamp Nagpur, but will not be otherwise compensated.

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