Summary

KotlinConf 2027’s call for proposals encourages developers of all experience levels to submit talks rooted in useful Kotlin-related lessons, including successes, failures, migrations, technical discoveries, and practical solutions. Strong submissions present a focused story rather than a broad subject, using a clear, informative title and a concise abstract that explains the context, challenge, approach, and concrete audience outcomes. Reviewers look for evidence of care, clarity, authenticity, and a direct connection to Kotlin, while specific takeaways, a distinct perspective on familiar topics, and honest discussion of trade-offs can make proposals more compelling. Speakers should identify the intended audience and appropriate format, choosing lightning talks for narrower ideas and regular sessions for material requiring more depth, while recordings or other relevant work can help demonstrate communication style. Before submitting, applicants are advised to seek feedback, verify that the proposal is realistic and polished, and ensure that AI tools have not replaced their own voice or experience.
