Call for Presentations  
A RIPE Meeting is an open event where Internet Service Providers, 
network operators and other interested parties get together. Although 
the meeting is mostly technical, it is also a chance for people to meet 
and network with others in their field. 
 
RIPE 75 will take place from 22-26 October in Dubai, UAE. 
 
The RIPE Programme Committee (PC) is now seeking content proposals from 
the RIPE community for the plenary sessions, BoFs (Birds of a Feather 
sessions), panels, workshops, tutorials and lightning talks at RIPE 75. 
See the full descriptions of the different presentation formats, 
https://ripe75.ripe.net/submit-topic/presentation-formats/. 
 
Proposals for plenary sessions, BoFs, panels, workshops and tutorials 
must be submitted for full consideration no later than *20 August 2017*. 
Proposals submitted after this date will be considered depending on the 
remaining available space in the programme. 
 
The PC is looking for presentations covering topics of network 
engineering and operations, including but not limited to: 
 
- IPv6 deployment 
- Managing IPv4 scarcity 
- Data centre technologies 
- Network and DNS operations 
- Internet governance and regulatory practices 
- Network and routing security 
- Content delivery 
- Internet peering and mobile data exchange 
- Connected Things (aka. Internet of Things - IoT) 
 
Speakers 
 
Due to UAE law, confirmed speakers will need to submit a copy of their 
passport and contact information in advance of the meeting. More 
details are available here: 
https://ripe75.ripe.net/attend/dctm-requirements 
 
Please also note that speakers do not receive any discount or funding 
towards the meeting fee at RIPE Meetings. 
 
Submissions 
 
RIPE Meeting attendees are quite sensitive to keeping presentations 
non-commercial, and product marketing talks are strongly discouraged. 
Repeated audience feedback shows that the most successful talks focus on 
operational experience, research results, or case studies. For example, 
presenters wishing to describe a commercial solution should focus on the 
underlying technology and not attempt a product demonstration. 
 
Presenters should indicate how much time they will require. In general, 
the time allocated for the different presentation formats is as follows: 
 
- Plenary presentations: 20-25 minutes presentation with 5-10 minutes 
 discussion 
- Tutorials: up to two hours (Monday morning) 
- Workshops: one hour (during evening sessions) to two hours (Monday 
 morning) 
- BoFs: approximately one hour 
- Lightning talks: 10 minutes total for both presentation and any 
 discussion 
 
The following general requirements apply: 
 
- Proposals must be submitted using the meeting submission system, 
 https://ripe75.ripe.net/submit-topic/ 
- Lightning talks should also be submitted using the meeting submission 
 system (https://ripe75.ripe.net/submit-topic/) and can 
 be submitted any time up to and including the meeting week. The 
 allocation of lightning talks will be announced on short notice, in 
 some cases on the same day but often one day prior to the time slot 
 allocated. 
- Presenters who propose a panel or BoF are encouraged to include 
 speakers from several (perhaps even competing) companies and/or a 
 neutral facilitator. 
- All presentation proposals will only be considered by the PC if they 
 contain at least draft presentation slides (slides may be updated 
 later on). For panels, proposals must contain a clear description, as 
 well as the names of invited panellists, presenters and moderators. 
 
If you have any questions or requests concerning content submissions, 
please email pc [at] ripe [dot] net.
