In addition, registration for the conference is open so sign up or first learn more about the event on our Nextcloud Conference page. We’ll keep registration open until a few days before the event, but it’s best to sign up as soon as possible!
On Saturday and Sunday at bUm in Berlin, we kick off the day with an inspirational keynote speaker, followed by 30 minute panels and a technical talk after lunch. Then, it’s time for the traditional Nextcloud lightning talks and a workshop session!
While we have yet to announce keynote speakers, you should stay tuned for some big news!
Speak at the Conference, Stay for Contributor Week!
During the 2-day Nextcloud Conference, we also host simultaneously our famous Contributor Week from October 1-4! This is a week full of coding, developing, designing, discussions, only interrupted by relaxing evenings! You’re invited to come work with us on the future of private, federated, secure cloud technology.
If you want to build the next greatest Nextcloud app, or just meet the people who get it done, then bring your laptop and join us for fun coding week!
Proposals FAQ
What if I don’t do public speaking often?
Keep in mind that the talks are very low-key and low-stress. Anyone can present and the conference team is happy to help you practice a bit if you’re worried about anything!
When will I hear back if my proposal was accepted?
We will get back to you as soon as possible. If your proposal is accepted, you’ll receive an email from us! Note that sometimes we receive a lot of talk proposals and then we have to select based on time – first come, first gets the speaking slot! Nevertheless, we are really looking forward to welcome you at Nextcloud Conference!
If accepted, what comes next?
For a workshop, you will submit a draft of your slides for us to look over. For lightning talks, just prepare your talk by the conference dates. If you prefer to memorize it, create notecards, or have a word for word copy, all options are acceptable.
