GopherCon 2017 Call for Proposals

The 2017 call for proposals has closed. The program will be announced by the end of February

GopherCon 2017 is an annual conference dedicated to the Go programming language. It is organized by Gopher Academy, a community-driven group of developers who wish to promote the use of Go, the formation of an inclusive and supportive Go community, and the education of Go developers.

GopherCon 2017 is a three-day event. The final day, previously known as hack day, is now known as community day and features a large communal area for collaboration, and break out rooms for special interests.

GopherCon 2017 will take place in Denver, Colorado on July 13 through July 15, 2017. We are soliciting talk proposals from January 1st through January 31st, 2017.

Note: Proposals for lightning talks on Community Day (July 15th) will be handled in a separate call which will be held in a few months time.
