Our Talks

• Talks have been added to the schedule.
• We have 25+5 minutes! Themes must be chosen carefully, since time runs out quickly!
• English is not a blocker, but Hungarian is the preferred. If you plan to make a talk in a language other than Hungarian, please do it in English. Most of the audience talks English, since we will be in a IT University context.
