Join us at the third annual Web 2.0 Expo New York this fall as a speaker or panelist! Our Call for Participation is now open.

We’re looking for proposals for sessions and workshops with an interesting angle that falls under a broad Web 2.0 theme. A few possibilities for this year, in no particular order, include:

  • Compelling new business models
  • Social media marketing
  • Design for satisfying user experiences
  • Cutting-edge development
  • The mobile tsunami
  • Performance challenges
  • Practical analytics
  • Real-time opportunities
  • Security everywhere
  • Cloud computing
  • Startup strategies
  • Small business successes
  • Enterprise issues

The firm deadline for proposals is April 12 at 11:59 p.m. PST. We do not have the luxury of extending our deadline this year. Please plan accordingly.

NEW REQUIREMENT: To be considered by our selection team, you must submit a short video of the speaker(s).  Clips can be short (2-3 minutes), low-quality footage of the speaker proposing their session, or it can be footage from a previous talk. Either way, it’s mandatory. Leave yourself time to create and upload the video.

HOW TO SUBMIT A WINNING PROPOSAL: We get more than 10 proposals per available slot. To help yours rise above the rest, attend our short webcast on Thursday, March 25 at 1 p.m. PST: “Insider Tips for Submitting a Winning Proposal to Web2Expo.” Bring your questions.

Need more advice on how to write a successful speaking proposal? Check out our blog post detailing the “Dos and Don’ts” of winning submissions.

See you in New York!
