Panel discussion: You should give a talk next year
summary
Panelists say start at local meetups, tell your actual story, and structure slides with post-its before designing. Prepare over weeks, not days, and rehearse a talk ten to twenty times; one example gets invited to Paris for an 18-minute slot and another gave 25 talks in two years. Begin by asking “what one thing should the audience remember” and start with the conclusion; perks include visibility, networking, and conference travel.
