Message from the Program Team

Open Collaborative Connections - Join us to experience the open web with a collaborative culture and a connection to DrupalCamps across Europe

There is no DrupalCon without an awesome program, and our program team is working on various activities to make this happen.

First of all - what are we going to learn about this year?

Last year, we had five areas in which our program was centered around, and we decided that we would like to continue with them again this year.

That said, the main topics for this years’ edition of DrupalCon Europe will be:

  • Agency & Business
    Attendees looking for actionable advice, ideas and challenges from business owners, operators, executives and project managers on how to manage their business and projects successfully.
  • Clients & Industry Experiences
    Digital managers and executive decision-makers using Drupal or considering Drupal as their next digital experience management platform. Agency leaders, product owners and tech leads would also find the showcases insightful.
  • Makers & Builders
    This track is for everyone interested in Drupal development, including all disciplines and all levels of experience. This track is for both technical profiles, and also anyone interested in how Drupal works from the inside.
  • Open Web & Community
    This track is for everyone in the Drupal and Open Web community interested in the web being an inclusive, diverse, open and healthy place. 
  • Users & Editors
    If you are using Drupal extensively to reach your organizations' digital goals or to create content regularly, or if you are creating the editorial experience for a project, this track is for you.

 

We are aiming to give you high-quality sessions from seasoned speakers, where you can learn and discover new things. We are also adjusting the schedule, so as an attendee, you can make the most out of your DrupalCon experience, without the feeling of being overloaded.

Then - who is going to select the sessions?

The program team leads (Rouven Volk, Dan Lemon and Zsófi Major) have already started weekly meetings to figure out the details, and they are working on putting together a great program team for each track. Once complete, the team will start building the program and we will publish our call for papers.

And finally - how can you get involved?

There are many ways to help out around DrupalCon. Since we are currently forming our program team, we are looking for motivated volunteers who would be interested in joining a track and helping us find the best sessions of the season.

Do you have good contacts in one of the audience groups we have mentioned above? Are you interested in helping promote the program or selecting the right sessions for one of these tracks? The track team is committed to providing a diverse and inclusive program, which is why we welcome help, especially from underrepresented groups.

Your help as a track chair can be a very rewarding experience and will shape the program for the next DrupalCon.

Please complete our track chair form if you are interested in helping with the DrupalCon Europe 2021 program team!
