Call for Participation
Helsinki 8-12 March 2027 Online 7-9 April 2027
Speak at RoboCon 2027
In-person: Helsinki, March 8–12, 2027 · Online: Worldwide, April 7–9, 2027
Join us on the RoboCon 2027 stage
For a decade, RoboCon has been where the Robot Framework community comes together — to learn, share, and push the craft forward. This year we're celebrating our 10th anniversary, and we want you to be part of it.
Have you solved a hard problem with Robot Framework? Built something the community needs to know about? Learned something the hard way so others don't have to? This is your stage.
Why speak at RoboCon 2027?
Be part of the 10th anniversary
This is the biggest edition yet, and the people in the room are the ones who built and shaped Robot Framework over the past decade.
Contribute to open source and reach a global audience
Sharing your knowledge is one of the most direct ways to give back, and your talk will be seen by attendees worldwide and on our YouTube channel long after the conference.
Teach, not just talk
Whether it's a workshop, tutorial, or a talk with real takeaways, RoboCon audiences come to learn and put things into practice.
Speaker package
A free conference pass, travel support for Helsinki speakers, and a little something to mark the 10th edition.
What we're looking for
Topics can be technical or non-technical, introductory or advanced. If it's useful or instructive to the Robot Framework community, we want to hear about it.
This is a Robot Framework conference. Proposals should have a clear connection to Robot Framework — that's the rule, not the exception. Generic testing or automation talks without a meaningful link to Robot Framework or its community are unlikely to make the program.
For the online conference, we are particularly looking for proposals in these focus areas:
- AI & Automation Intelligence
- Web UI Testing
- Libraries & Integrations
- Core Robot Framework
- Data & APIs
- Best Practices from the Community
Don't see an exact fit? Submit anyway.
Formats
Pick the shape that fits your material — every format is reviewed by the same committee, and a sharp 20-minute talk beats a stretched-out session.
