Cloud Native Rejects EU aims to offer a stage for some of the great, but rejected, talks from KubeCon EU.

We welcome rejected proposals from KubeCon EU or new ones that cover super fresh topics. We offer slots for 30min full-length talks and 5min lightning talks. While you may submit any talk that was rejected from KubeCon EU, we are especially looking for talks about the following topics.

• core concepts
• open-source components + tooling
• CNCF projects
• user experiences
• security
• new developments + experiments (only those topics so new they could not be proposed for KubeCon)

If your proposal falls into one of these topics, then let's continue by clicking the button below.
