GDCFP Los Angeles 2019

Please note event is Sunday, March 3rd (NOT Saturday)

Global Diversity CFP Day for Los Angeles will be held on Sunday, March 3rd from 9:30-2:30 PM at Swell Investing in Santa Monica.

Have you always wanted to become a tech conference speaker? Are you under-represented at tech conferences? We want to help you prepare your very first talk proposal and share your own individual perspective at technology conferences. These workshops have no specific language, framework or process as a focus. Even if your talk isn’t strictly technical, we want to hear from you too! In short, if there is something that you want to shout to the world we're here to help you get there regardless of the boundaries of technology or communities.
