Current 2022: How to Become a Speaker

Current 2022, announced as the next generation of Kafka Summit, was scheduled for October 4–5 in Austin, Texas as a technical conference focused on data in motion, expanding beyond Kafka to cover event-driven design, streaming technologies, real-time systems, data governance, observability, orchestration, and company-scale data platforms. Its Call for Papers was open through June 26, inviting both experienced and first-time speakers to submit up to three proposals for 10-minute lightning talks or 45-minute breakout sessions, with up to two speakers per session. The event sought informative, educational, and non-promotional presentations across tracks including real-time applications, streaming technology, architectures, data lifecycle, operations, analytics, case studies, and people and culture. A community-based program committee would select talks, while mentoring, speaker office hours, and meetup practice opportunities were offered to help new speakers develop abstracts and presentations.
