The Clock is Ticking—Submit Your Speaker Proposal!

Tik Tok, Tik Tok. Time is running out! If you’ve been considering speaking at WordCamp Europe 2025, now’s the moment to act. The deadline to submit your speaker proposal is January 31, 2025, and with the excitement building for this year’s event in Basel, you won’t want to miss this opportunity to join the lineup. Whether you’re sharing an innovative project, technical skills, or a personal story, this is your chance to inspire thousands of WordPress professionals and enthusiasts from across the globe.

WordCamp Europe is the largest WordPress event in the region, bringing together brilliant minds, incredible stories, and creative solutions. Your voice could be the spark that inspires someone to take their next step—whether it’s learning a new skill, launching a business, or overcoming a challenge. From workshops and in-depth talks to inspiring keynotes, WordCamp thrives on the diversity of ideas shared on stage. Why not let yours be one of them?

Maybe you’re thinking, “I’m not ready” or “I’m not an expert”—but you are ready, and you do have something valuable to share. The WordPress community is built on openness, learning, and support, and there’s no better platform to showcase your ideas. New speakers are encouraged, and WordCamp organizers are here to help guide you through the process, so you can bring your best self to the stage.

With the clock ticking, there’s no time to hesitate. Carve out some time today to brainstorm your idea and craft your proposal. It doesn’t need to be perfect—what matters most is your enthusiasm and willingness to share. The deadline is just around the corner, and opportunities like this don’t come every day.
