Preparing to Submit
Preparing to Submit Your Proposal
While it is not our intention to provide you with strict instructions on how to prepare your proposal, we hope you will take a moment to review the following guidelines that we have put together to help you prepare the best submission possible. To get started, here are four things that you should consider before submitting your proposal:
- Is this a “how to” talk, telling the audience how something was/will be done, and not an overview of what you did?
- What are the top two (2) things people will learn from this talk?
- Why should YOU be the one to give this talk? You have a unique story. Tell it.
There are plenty of ways to give a presentation about projects and technologies without focusing on company-specific efforts. Remember the things to consider that we mentioned above when writing your proposal and think of ways to make it interesting for attendees while still letting you share your experiences, educate the community about an issue, or generate interest in a project.
First Time Submitting? Don’t Feel Intimidated
RISC-V events are an excellent way to get to know the community and share your ideas and the work that you are doing. You do not need to be a chief architect or long-time industry pundit to submit a proposal, in fact, we strongly encourage first-time speakers to submit talks for all of our events.
Our events are working conferences intended for professional networking and collaboration in the RISC-V community and we work closely with our attendees, sponsors and speakers to help keep RISC-V events professional, welcoming, and friendly. If you have any questions on how to submit a proposal or the event in general, please contact speakers@riscv.org.
