​Call for Speakers

​As in past events, we will make slots for anyone who wants to present.

​Here are some topics:

​🔥 Performance testing and optimization magic
🚀 Rolling out a new feature in the core library
🐛 The thrill (and agony) of squashing a particularly tricky bug
🛠️ Crafting an amazing product using DataFusion

​If it’s related to DataFusion or the broader Apache Arrow ecosystem and it excites you, we would love to have you.
