Web Directions Year round learning for product, design and engineering professionals

If you’re keen on speaking at Product (in either the product design or product management track), or Design Leaders, the companion event focussed on design leadership challenges, CFPs close in a couple of weeks.
Most of the sessions we select from our CFP are 20 minutes long, and focus on a single topic–it’s just the right amount of time to cover one thing in some depth, and then point the audience in the direction to learn more.

What are we looking for?

For The Design track at Product

We’re looking for all things related to designing great products–from research to content, UX, UI, IxD, as well as visual design, and designops. 

For The Product Management track at Product

We cover the whole product lifecycle, and the challenges product managers face–from communication to discovery, onboarding to growth, strategy and more. 

For Design Leaders

Design Leaders focusses on the challenges facing professionals managing and leading design teams. If you lead design teams, we’d love to hear from you about the challenges you face and the way you go about solving them.

What Do Speakers Get?

We cover speakers conference ticket (of course) and travel and accomodation (if required). There’s a fantastic dinner which gives speakers the opportunity to connect with one another, as well as Gold ticket holders from the conference. 

We also professionally video presentations, caption and transcribe them, allowing speakers to showcase their work to a far wider audience. 

I’m keen, what do I do now?

You’ll find all the details, and the submission form at our speakers page. And if you have any questions at all, or want to sound out an idea, just contact us–we’re always very happy to discuss your proposal and whether and how it might best fit into the program.
