LJC - London Java Community - Find your Java Voice: New Speaker Night
Tuesday 2 October 2018, 19:00 - 20:00
Sign up on Eventbrite for Location, London, Reino Unido
This event is part of the Up Next initiative. Speaking at conferences, meetups and the like can be a major boost to your career. Getting started though can be tough. Not only do you need to summon the courage to stand up in front of your peers you often find that to get accepted to a conference you need a video of you speaking. Talk about a catch-22. The LJC, RecWorks and IBM team want to help new speakers overcome these challenges. In this event, we'll be running two tracks - one of which will be dedicated to women speakers. New speakers will get the chance to get feedback and advice from seasoned developers who speak at conferences and meetups and IBM will be providing a professional film crew who will film each speaker and create individual 5 minute videos. Only 20 places are available so please register as soon as possible. To make this more realistic we need more than new speakers - we need an audience. So even if you don’t want to speak at a conference come along and support those brave developers who do. All attendees will be entered into our raffle for a chance to win prizes including JetBrains Licenses and O'Reilly books. If you want to take advantage of this opportunity to practise speaking and get that video, sign up today! The only requirement is that you come along with a 5-minute lightning talk all ready to go. The subject can be on anything related to computers. No slides are necessary (though you can bring them if it helps). Advice and guidance will come from our mentors and experienced speakers: Holly Cummins, Margriet Groenendij, Katherine Stanley, Richard Warburton, Simon Maple and Martijn Verburg. This is a placeholder for the event being held on Eventbrite.
