TOC New York 2012 Call for Proposals: Due August 29

By Kat Meyer (Co-Chair & Community Manager, Tools for Change, O’Reilly Media)
Every year, the greatest minds in the publishing and tech industries converge at O’Reilly’s Tools of Change Conference (TOC) to map out the future of publishing, and to share their experiences and expertise. We’re in the planning stages of TOC 2012, and if you’ve got a great proposal for a presentation you’d like to make, we’d love to hear from you.

We’re not looking for talking heads to deliberate on the state of the industry as it is; we’re looking for original people with great ideas, mad skills, and real-world experience who can explore — with their audiences –where publishing is headed, and the forces shaping that future.

TOC presentation content ranges from abstract to practical, covering topics such as transformative business models, new and emerging technologies, and the nuts and bolts of digital design techniques. Attendees leave with a clearer view of the future, along with a lot of useful advice and dozens of ideas they can immediately put into practice.

If you have a presentation or session idea that will enhance the TOC lineup of advanced technical sessions, in-depth explorations of successful experimental publishing models, or the latest in research, we encourage you to send in a proposal.

If you have skills you want to share, submit your proposal by August 29:

Looking forward to seeing you in February.
