NANOG 77 call for presentations is open

[bensons at pc.nanog.org (Benson Schliesser)]

NANOG Community,

The NANOG Program Committee (PC) is excited to announce that we are now
accepting proposals for all sessions at NANOG 77 in Austin, Texas, October
28-30, 2019. Below is a summary of key details and dates from the Call For
Presentations on the NANOG website, which can be found at
https://nanog.org/meetings/nanog-77/.

Given by many of the industryâ??s top minds, presentations at NANOG meetings
are meant to spark the imagination, encourage dialog, and drive new
solutions to our greatest networking challenges. The PC is currently
seeking proposals, and also welcomes suggestions for speakers and topics.
Presentations may cover current technologies, soon-to-be deployed
technologies, and industry innovation. Vendors are welcome to submit talks
which cover relevant technologies and capabilities, but presentations
should not be promotional, or discuss proprietary solutions.


The primary speaker, moderator, or author should submit a presentation
proposal and abstract via the PC Tool at: https://pc.nanog.org

   the initial proposal. Please submit initial draft slides early â?? the PC
   does not evaluate submissions until draft slides are available for review.
   NANOG Staff is available to assist with slide templates upon request from
   the submitter.
   -

   Panel and Track submissions should provide a topic list and
   intended/confirmed participants in the abstract.

   develop the topic.

for developing an idea into a presentation, please email the PC (
nanogpc at nanog.org), and a representative will respond to you in a timely
manner. Otherwise, submit your talk, keynote, track, or panel proposal to
