> Open Source Days 2012: Call for Speakers
> ========================================
> 
> Open Source Days 2012 is currently planned for early March 2012 and we are
> looking for gifted, entertaining and technically enlightened speakers for the
> conference.
> 
> The conference itself will take place the 2nd and 3rd of March and training
> will be available 1st of March.
> 
> Training courses - Half or full day
> -----------------------------------
> 
> As something new we will want to try out longer training courses - half or full
> day, held on the day before the conference itself.
> 
> We are looking for both subjects and instructors.
> 
> Since we expect the course participants to pay for the training, we are willing
> to pay the instructor for giving the course, provided that a sufficient number
> of people sign up.
> 
> Naturally the course instructors also get free access to the conference, since
> we also hope to get a normal talk out of the instructor.
> 
> Normal Talks - 45 minutes
> -------------------------
> 
> This year we will have a track with focus on the use of open source software in
> newly created startups and another track with focus on green technologies.
> 
> Non-startup related talks are also of interest and we'll try to fit them into
> various related tracks.
> 
> Speakers can attend the conference free of charge and to some extent we might
> be able to reimburse your travel and hotel.
> 
> Lightning Talks - 15 minutes
> ----------------------------
> 
> Talk about anything you like. Tell us about your idea for a new project, how
> you made your first Qt application or something completely different. For
> lightning talks, only your imagination and the timeframe are the limiting
> factors.
> 
> If you have never tried doing a presentation before, but are working on
> something you believe other people might find interesting, then this is a good
> opportunity to start.
> 
> Lightning talk speakers can attend the conference free of charge.
> 
> Sponsorships
> ------------
> 
> Sponsorships can be in the range of DKK 10000 and up. Please write to
> [email protected] if you are interested in becoming a conference
> sponsor.
