Present your story and be the inspiration that sparks innovation. Submissions are reviewed on a first come, first serve basis. Space is limited. Email your proposal before March 3, 2018 to LightningTalks@esri.com.

• No live demos — We want to hear about the idea directly from you.
• Be creative — You can use slides, videos, or Prezi to present your talk.
• Avoid sales pitches — Refrain from advertising products and services.
• Hurry and sign up! — There are only 18 slots, so submit your lightning talk soon!

  Lightning Talk submissions are reviewed on a first come, first serve basis and space is limited. Email your Lightning Talk proposal to LightningTalks@esri.com by the March 3, 2018 deadline, including the following:

  • Your final Lightning Talk PowerPoint slides, video, or Prezi.
  • A short description of your talk (500 characters or less).
  • A brief, interesting fact about yourself that we can share with the Lightning Talks audience.
• Have fun! — This is your chance to share your passion for your great idea. For inspiration, read How to Give a Great Ignite Talk or watch a lightning talk on writing Unix daemons to see how a seemingly dull topic can be made exciting.
