<h2>BornHack 2016: Call for Speakers</h2>

<p>BornHack 2016 is a 7 days outdoor technology tent camping festival that will take place from the 27th of August to the 3rd of September 2016 on the island of Bornholm in Denmark. It is first time that BornHack will take place and it is our goal to make BornHack a yearly recurring event with 100 to 350 participants.</p>

<p>We are looking for gifted, entertaining and technically enlightening speakers to host talks, lightning talks and workshops at BornHack.</p>

<p>Please reach out to us on speakers@bornhack.dk with a title, abstract, biography, an optional picture of yourself and whether it is a regular talk, lightning talk, workshop or something entirely different. Please ensure that all information is in English. The submitted information will be published both as a news entry and in the official event program on our website, if the submission is accepted.</p>

<p>We are very open to different topics. We expect that the majority of the presentation at BornHack will be on security, networking, programming, distributed systems, privacy, and how these technologies relate to society.</p>

<p>The ticket shop for BornHack 2016 is already open and available at <a href="{% url 'shop:index' %}">https://bornhack.dk/shop/</a> - please make sure you have also read our <a href="{% url 'conduct' %}">Code of Conduct</a>.</p>

<h3>Regular Talk</h3>

<p>Regular talks are 45 minutes of presentation, 10 minutes of questions from the audience followed by 5 minutes of preparation for setting up the next speaker.</p>

<p>Please bring your own laptop with your presentation on; it should have an HDMI socket and we will provide the cable to the projector. We do not guarantee that audio will work, even if your laptop supports that.</p>

<p>We will provide you with a one-day entrance ticket free of charge, but due to our limited funds, you would have to pay for transportation to and from the event yourself. We also encourage you to participate for the entire week, but you would also have to pay for the ticket yourself.</p>

<h3>Lightning Talk</h3>

<p>Lightning talks are 10 minutes of presentation. A laptop will be connected to the projector at the location of the presentations.</p>

<p>A lightning talk is an excellent opportunity for inexperienced speakers to present a topic that you find interesting.</p>

<p>You MUST buy yourself an entrance ticket to host a lightning talk; we are unable to offer free tickets for everyone that gives a lightning talk.</p>

<h3>Workshop</h3>

<p>We have two workshop areas that will be able to host workshops for approximately 20 people per room. Workshops can be up to 3 hours per slot and can be extended for daily workshops.</p>

<p>You MUST buy yourself an entrance ticket to host a workshop; we are unable to offer free tickets for everyone that hosts a workshop.</p>

<h2>Contact Information</h2>

<p>The BornHack speakers team can be contacted via speakers@bornhack.dk - for general information reach out to the info team via info@bornhack.dk</p>
