Scala eXchange 2015 - Call for Papers

December 10th-11th 2015
Submit your talk to bit.ly/scalax15

Conference website - http://scala.exchange

The Scala eXchange is the largest annual Scala conference in Europe with
over 500+ attendees each year. With 4 tracks over 2 days this is the
perfect opportunity to meet and learn from fellow Scala enthusiasts. Full
details for this event can be found at http://scala.exchange.

We are looking for all types of Scala talks from:

- Work/project experiences using Scala
- Scala design patterns and best practices
- A framework or library that you want to demo
- Scala with Big Data
- TypeSafe or Typelevel stacks
- Functional programming theory/practice
- Deploying, instrumenting, or monitoring Scala projects

Most of all we're looking for talks that inspire and educate. If you
proposal doesn't fit into a nice theme, it doesn't matter!

We welcome three types of session:

- 45 minutes (aim to talk for 35 to 40 minutes and 5 to 10 minutes for
questions)
- 15 minute lightning talks (you can use the full 15 minutes and take
questions after)
- 2+ hour hands on sessions (we will contact you to discuss this).

The selection will be made by Skills Matter & Underscore on the basis of
making this as varied and interesting an event as possible.

All accepted speakers will receive a ticket to the conference, plus an
additional complimentary ticket.

As proponents of diversity we encourage talks from everyone no matter sex,
race, creed, sexuality or ability. And if it is your first time speaking,
don't worry, our partners at Underscore are offering shepherding, speaker
training, help with presentation writing, and limited bursaries to speakers
who have not previously presented at a Scala conference. More details
available here:

Timeline

- We will contact all submission presenters by week commencing August 17th

Any questions, please contact [email protected] and we'll do our best
