The web page for submitting User Presentations is up.
The ESRI Developer Summit has always been a great productivity event, and we expect the 2009 DevSummit to be even better. ESRI staff have recently begun preparing about 25% more technical sessions. Attendees get to hear from and interact with the product teams and innovative developers who are creating our technologies and putting them to use. And over the past year, we have heard from you that we need to continue growing user-involvement. After all, it is a “Summit” for all of us, right?
So here we go. Share your ideas, present your work, or lead a topic of discussion with the developer community. If you have content that would be of interest to other attendees, then we encourage you to submit an abstract.
If you are interested in learning more about this opportunity visit the 2009 DevSummit “Share Your Work” webpage. That page also lists some suggested topic areas, but feel free to be creative.
Once accepted, your assigned conference planner will help get you what you need to be successful. And then your presentation will be scheduled and promoted on the website, conference materials, and signage.
At this point, it looks like we’re going to have about 10-15 scheduled slots. The capacity of the room will be between 50 and 70, so it should end up being a more interactive experience if you want it to be. This room will be part of the “Showcase” area, which is the central hub of the event. Then in the weeks leading up to the DevSummit, registered attendees will be able to vote so that particularly popular sessions can be moved into larger capacity rooms.
The deadline for submissions is February 6th, 2009. If you’re interested, let us know right away and we look forward to working with you.
