2018 Tips for Submitting:

1. The Value of Customer Stories:
Customers, we want to hear from you. Partners and SAP, our metrics show that your session is twice as likely to be accepted if you co-present with a customer. While it is not required, we recommend finding a customer to demonstrate proof of concept, early adopter success, or lessons learned from a completed project.

2. Short, Catchy Titles and Abstracts:
Both the session title and abstract have limited character counts. We recommend having a session title that is easy to read and attempts to grab the attention of potential attendees. The abstract should be a brief, clear description of the story you are going to tell.

3. What Else Do You Want Us to Know?
Just because your abstract is brief, doesn't mean that you can't provide more detail. Use the “What else do you want us to know about your session?” field to give our reviewers a better understanding of the products, topics, and key learning points you plan to cover during your session.
