Don’t be afraid to bring up advanced stuff and even try your hand at live demo-ing. Tracks will include: AI/ML, DataScience, Mobile, Full Stack, Blockchain, Security, Cloud, and Python
Submissions by professional and first-time speakers are welcome. If you have an awesome idea, submit it! We will be happy to give you the necessary feedback to make sure it matches audience expectations.
