We accept ALL topics related to WordPress and beyond, and encourage them. The charm of WordCamp Asia is that we welcome a diverse lineup of talented speakers to provide value to our broad audience.
We are looking for diverse topics and inspirational stories. If you’re not sure what to talk about and need some ideas, here are the topics most asked about in our survey:
Advanced development
Accessible design
Agile frameworks
Culture
Project management
Scaling up the business
SEO
Storytelling
Success stories
Working remotely ‘best practices’
How long should your presentation be?
We are planning the following formats for sessions:
Long talks (30 min talk + 15 min Q&A)
Lightning talks (10 min talk + 5 min Q&A)
We plan to have two tracks, and each slot in the schedule will be one hour. Content will take up to 45 minutes of each hour, which gives attendees 15 minutes after each session to switch tracks, grab a cup of coffee, and chat with other attendees.
We require all talks to be in English only. Sorry, we won’t be able to accept non-English talks this year.
WordCamp Asia 2020 will be the most extensive WordPress related conference in Asia, so it is recommended that you have some speaking experience. Speaking in front of a broad audience can be overwhelming even for more experienced speakers, which is why we want to lend a helping hand. This year, the speaker team will be sharing resources and tips on how to put together a successful presentation as well as how to be more comfortable on stage.
When reviewing speaker applications, we will take your previous speaking experience into account. If you have a few WordCamps lined up to add to your speaking experience before WordCamp Asia, but after you send in your application, make sure you tell us that too.
If you haven’t already, there is still time to speak at your local WordCamp or meetup to gain more practice.
