Lightning Talks Checklist

Before Conference

  • Establish rules for the year
  • Work with Program team to determine timing/location of Lightning Talks.
  • Set up sign up form/sheet
  • Set up shortened URL for sign up sheet and share with Opening Remarks speaker
  • Post in Slack about first day lightning talk signups (first day is usually light on signups if you don't give any notice)

During conference

  • Unlock sheets as needed if not already unlocked.
  • Check sign up periodically to see if there are any issues with signups, and for folks already speaking at the conference if you decide to deprioritize them.
  • Host the lightning talks!
