Networking & Lightning Talk Challenge
Networking & Lightning Talk Challenge
As in previous editions, on Wednesday, October 28th, we'll kick things off with our legendary networking event at a venue in Torremolinos (to be announced soon).Come to meet other attendees, speakers, organisers and friends of the event.
You don't need a ticket for the Yay-Yay Conf to join the party. Everyone is welcome.
You can come as:
🔹 Attendee: Grab a drink, meet fellow nerds, and enjoy the chaos from the audience.
🔹 Challenger: Take the mic and get your moment in the spotlight.
Got a rejected CFP?, a cursed technical opinion?, or an absurd story from production? a completely unhinged idea? This is your moment to shine and get recognized.
Challenge Rules
- Talks must be fun, entertaining, or gloriously ridiculous.
- Duration: 5 or 8 minutes.
- At minute 4, the audience decides your fate:
- 👍 Continue for 4 more minutes
- ✂️ Or get dramatically cut off at minute 5
The winner will become an official speaker at the Yay-Yay Conf, getting free access to the event and the chance to deliver a 10-minute talk in one of the conference rooms.
At the end of the session we'll announce the lucky winner, who will then get the chance to give a 10 minute talk on the subject of their choice in one of the tracks at J On The Beach 2024!
