Take part in our Call for Submissions! To submit your session idea, please register on our website and submit a new session form for each idea. A detailed description can be found below.
The more concise the information you submit, the easier for us to rate your session.

Yes of course. However, we do not accept product presentations or company marketing presentations. If your company is interested in a collaboration or sponsoring with Berlin Buzzwords, please contact us.
 

Being a community event, we cannot pay our speakers, alas. However, we cover your accomodation expenses.
 

Yes, of course!

We will let you know at the beginning of March.
 

Selection criteria include: the quality and completeness of your abstract and how well it fits in to the program. Talks and workshops should concentrate on the implementation of systems, technical topics, real world applications and case studies. You can find more hints and information here.

As long as you can access your session from the dashboard, it is saved and submitted correctly. You don't need to do anything else. Your session will be published once we accepted it for the conference programme. But no worries, we'll inform you via email before we'll publish it.

Pupils, students, people on social welfare, retirees and people with disabilities are eligible for these tickets. Please note that you have to present corresponding documentation of eligibility on location (student ID or other form of documentation that is valid in June 2016). 

No, as a speaker you will take part for free.

You can resell your ticket and there are usually plenty of thankful takers to be found. You can also carry out a cancellation (But: the cancellation fees have to be paid by the attendees themselves).

The discount is valid for groups of 5 and more attendees.

If you want to change the name of the ticket owner and make sure he or she gets a printed name badge with their own name, please send an email to event@newthinking.de. It must include the ticket number and the name and email address of the new owner.

Changing ticket owner names is only possible until May 27, 2017. Afterwards, we won’t be able to change the original name on the ticket. However, you can still sell or give your ticket to someone else. Please also note that it is up to you and the new recipient to work out your own payment method.
A ticket is only valid for one person and cannot be shared. You'll get a wristband in exchange of your ticket which you need to keep on your wrist for the entire duration of the event.
