In addition, this year we are accepting proposals for Lightening Talks and Panel Discussions & Debates.

Lightning Talks submissions
Limited to 5 minutes only to present one idea, thought or issue that you think the audience should hear. It may be a quick team update, introduction of a new team, or anything you would like to share but do not need a full slot for. Please contact sigita.jurkynaite@geant.org with the title of your proposed lightning talk.

Panel discussions & debates
Would you like to see a group of experts discussing a current issue on stage and have a possibility to ask questions? Please suggest a topic for a panel discussion or a debate. If you would like to find the experts and run it - we'd be happy to consider your suggestions. If you do not, but have a good subject in mind, that is fine too, just send the topic to Symposium-Europe18@first.org and we will do our best to make it happen.
