PostgreSQL Conference Europe 2020 will take place in Berlin, Germany,
on October 20-23. Our Call for Papers and Call for Sponsors are now open.
We are accepting proposals for talks in English. Each session will
last 45 minutes, and may be on any topic related to PostgreSQL. The
submission deadline is July 31st. Selected speakers will be notified
before August 15th, 2020.
Please submit your proposals by going to
https://2020.pgconf.eu/call-for-papers/ and following the instructions.
The proposals will be considered by committee who will produce a
schedule to be published nearer the conference date. The members of
the committee are listed on the website linked above.
All selected speakers will get free entry to the conference (excluding
training sessions). We do not in general cover travel and accommodations
for speakers, but may be able to do so in limited cases. If you require
assistance with funding to be able to attend, please make a note of this
in the submission notes field or contact us separately before the
submission deadline.
Our Call for Sponsorship is also open. Take your chance to
present your services or products to the PostgreSQL community - or
see it as a give back opportunity. All sponsorship levels also include
one or more free entrance tickets, depending on the level. Please head
to https://2020.pgconf.eu/become-sponsor/ for more details.
Under the current circumstances it is hard to be certain if we will be
able to run this event in October, due to the Covid-19 situation.
However, signed commitments means we are proceeding under the
assumption that we can, and if the situation changes we will adapt
and/or cancel at a later date. To make it clear to everybody, both
sponsors and attendees, we’ve published a special Covid-19 handling
policy at https://2020.pgconf.eu/covid-19/ which outlines that we will be
providing a full refund to both sponsors and attendees if we have to
cancel the event.
As usual, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact us at
contact@pgconf.eu.
We look forward to seeing you in Berlin in October!
