SOCAP Open Session Ideas

Review the 2023 SOCAP Open Submissions!

The submission period for SOCAP Open has now ended.

SOCAP23 content curation: We take the curation process seriously — it goes beyond selecting and organizing quality presenters and topics. We want our attendees to be a part of the session, a part of the takeaways that build a better future and help advance our community’s global mission.

This year, we have evolved our curation process, moving toward a distributed approach to building our conference programming. Along with those selected through SOCAP Open, the sessions within each content track for SOCAP23 are co-created and curated by Content Curation Councils of 39 experts from around the world working closely with our content and production teams.

Our schedule for SOCAP23 Open:

April 2 to April 15: Upvote your favorite session! The community voting period is live. Help shape the content further by casting a vote for session submissions.

April 16 to April 28: Committee reading and selection. The SOCAP23 content committee reviews all submissions, discusses them as a group, and uses a decision matrix to make final content selections.

Week of June 10: Acceptance Letters sent to session organizers. If your session is accepted into SOCAP23, you will receive a letter detailing the next steps to confirm your participation.

June 30: SOCAP Open session confirmations due. If you are unable to confirm your session by this time, the content team will give your slot to an alternate contributor.

Early summer: Public announcement of selected Open sessions for SOCAP23.
