Speakers
The call for proposals is open
Got a story about async Rust? Submit a talk for TokioConf 2027. First-time speakers are very welcome: about a quarter of last year’s speakers were giving their first conference talk.
Submissions close November 30, 11:59 PM Pacific
What we’re looking for
- Building with Rust: Lessons from real-world experience using Rust & Tokio to build and ship products. Rust can be a good fit for web, robotics, AI, infrastructure, mobile, connected devices, real-time collaboration, and more. Share how using Rust helped deliver higher-quality software.
- Design and Architecture: How do you structure code that is easy to understand, extend, and maintain? How have you evolved new patterns as you adopt AI tools?
- Testing and Verification: How can we use integration testing, property-based testing, fuzzing, simulation, model checking, formal verification, and AI reviews to maintain the highest quality standards?
- Performance: We all like fast software. Bring us the tricks and tips that you learned to speed things up, reduce memory, or improve quality.
- AI with Rust: What role does Rust play in AI applications? How is AI changing Rust development? Topics include agents, inference, on-device models, integrating AI into applications, and using AI to write Rust code while maintaining high standards.
- Cool stuff: Let’s nerd out. Show us something interesting and fun you made with Rust. Anything goes. There does not need to be any practical application; just did it for fun. Side projects, unfinished experiments, and ideas that didn’t work out are all welcome too.
The details
- Most talks run 25–30 minutes. If yours needs more or less time, say why when you submit and we’ll work it out together.
- Speakers attend free.
