    Talk Formats & Tracks

    In the interest of creating a diverse program suitable for both technical and non-technical audiences, the following presentation formats are available:

    Polkadot In Action

    Share one or more specific use cases for Polkadot and show how the technology is bringing success, adoption, and momentum, or the potential for widespread adoption, to the Polkadot ecosystem. This could include a use case that your own team/company addresses or potential use cases that others could work on, such as Web3 gaming, asset tokenization, decentralized social, identity, or any other use case pushing the boundaries of Web3. Demonstrate how Polkadot’s technology stack uniquely enables innovation, efficiency, scalability or other benefits for this use case, and how it can give teams and projects a competitive edge. Keep in mind that the program may be divided into sections for specific verticals, so having a clear use case category is advised.

    Who is it for?

    Tracks (TBC):

    Polkadot & the Movement for a Better Web

    High-level visionary talks and thought leadership on the big problems Polkadot solves. For this format, the focus should be on the capabilities of the technology, not the code. Share your vision of Polkadot and let the world know how it can help and is helping build a better web and a brighter future. Talks in this category can also cover high-level topics such as positive developments and momentum in policy, governance, social impact, sustainability, humanitarian use cases, and more.

    Who is it for?

    Tracks (TBC):

    Polkadot Deep Dive

    A tech talk or workshop diving deep into the technology of Polkadot and/or an ecosystem project, aimed at bringing new builders into the ecosystem. This format can include a project demo or hands-on workshop to showcase your work on a technical level, or a deep-dive into the technology of Polkadot itself. Project technical demo proposals must include a link to your project's Github repo. Workshop proposals should include an outline of what your educational goals are, i.e the outcome you want your audience to achieve after attending your workshop.

    Who is it for?

    Tracks (TBC):

    Unleashing the true potential of Web3

    Demonstrate how Polkadot is leading the way to the multichain future with the most viable and powerful technology for Web3. When and why should Web3 teams, Web2 enterprises and developers consider building their own use-case optimized blockchain on Polkadot, and what are the various options for building dapps in the ecosystem? Talks in this category should demonstrate the true potential of Polkadot’s tech stack to fuel a new wave of innovation, helping prospective teams inform their decision on the right platform for their blockchain or Web3 application, including a look at the resources and tools available for builders in the ecosystem.

    Who is it for?

    Polkadot Ecosystem Showcase

    Present/demo your own project to the community in a short talk sharing key information and insight into the benefits provided, the users served, the problems solved, and the adoption potential behind your project. Share why you chose to build on Polkadot and how the technology helps you meet your project objectives. Demos in this category should be aimed at a non-technical audience.
