We're looking for speakers interested in presenting for a new online virtual Apache Iceberg meetup series we're starting. The goal is to create a forum where members of the Apache Iceberg community can demo interesting work, share experiences, and discuss ideas with one another. ## What we're looking for We're especially interested in talks that are practical, demo-driven, or story-rich. Whether you're a practitioner, startup founder, platform engineer, or contributor, we'd love to hear what you've been working on and what you've learned. Some ideas for talk topics include: - Iceberg migration stories and case studies - New Iceberg features, proposals, and community projects - Iceberg catalogs, integrations, and interoperability - Data engineering tools, demos, prototypes, and experiments ## Community-focused talks We want the meetup to be a *place for learning and community discussion* rather than product or vendor marketing. Talks can feature tools, products, or technologies you work on, but the focus should be on technical insights, demos, lessons learned, or ideas that are useful to the broader Apache Iceberg community—not on promoting a company or product. ## How the meetup works Meetups will be held virtually on Google Meet and will be publicly open to everyone. Talks will typically be around 20–30 minutes, leaving plenty of time for introductions, questions, and open community discussion. We aim to keep each meetup to about an hour and start and end on time. Talks will generally be recorded and posted to the [**Apache Iceberg Meetup YouTube** channel](https://www.youtube.com/@IcebergMeetup). If you'd prefer not to have your talk recorded, let us know when submitting. We do not plan to record the Q&A and open discussion portion of the meetup. ## Submitting a talk Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis. Even if a talk isn't scheduled for the next meetup, we may reach out about presenting at a future session. If we receive several submissions around a similar topic, we may also suggest bringing presenters together for a shared discussion or panel.
