The application process
We use Sessionize to handle submissions and schedule building. In order to submit a session for Futuricon, you will need to register a Sessionize account. (You may review their privacy policy here.) A speaker photo (or a group photo if the programme is organized by a collective) is required.
General instructions are provided next to the submission form – please read them carefully, and contact us if you have any additional questions.
We will periodically go through the submissions and notify you whether yours was accepted into the official programme. This means that if you submit your proposal early, you may be notified of whether it was accepted long before the submission deadline.
Parts of the programme will be published on our website while the submissions are still open, and we expect the majority of the programme to be public by May 2020.
