We're excited that you want to share your network and/or ideas with us! We have reformatted the Suggestion Box to look a little different this year as we noticed that a lot of you weren't just interested in suggesting speakers and actually had ideas for topics and fully composed sessions.
We've also changed the timeline of activities for the Suggestion Box, and will address the changes below:
1
You can now suggest:
A.
A speaker - someone you think could add value to TechBBQ's content (they can fall into keynote, fireside or panelist positions).
B.
A moderator - someone that can facilitate a panel or fireside
C.
A topic (this comes with the option to suggest speakers for this topic too)

Timelines:
The speaker suggestion box has been open since November, and will continue to stay open until March. In March we will close the box for new applications so as to focus on reviewing the ones we've received in the last few months. It will then re-open in April to the end of May. After May, we will no longer be accepting new applications and will instead focus on reviewing those that have come in during the last few months.

You will only hear from us if we find a fit for the program. We hope to have the program largely locked and loaded by mid-July.
We can't wait to see what and who YOU think is interesting! It's the community that makes TechBBQ go round afterall
