Host an Event

Sharing your knowledge through a live event is a powerful way to engage with the community, get feedback on your work, and help others learn. Open Neuromorphic hosts several types of events, and we are always looking for new speakers and hosts.

Types of Events You Can Host

• Workshops: Lead a hands-on session or a deep-dive presentation on a specific neuromorphic tool, technology, or research area.
• Student Talks: Present your ongoing research, a recently published paper, or a comprehensive literature review. This is a great platform for students and early-career researchers.
• Hacking Hours: Co-host a live coding session to tackle a specific problem, demonstrate a library, or explore a new concept.

How to Propose an Event

Getting started is easy. You don’t need to be a seasoned presenter; you just need a passion for your topic.

1. Have an Idea: Think about what you’d like to share. It could be your latest project, a tutorial you’ve developed, or a topic you’re passionate about.

2. Reach Out to Us: Contact us through one of these channels:

   • Discord: This is the best way. Post a message in the #proposals-contributions channel on our Discord server or send a direct message to an Executive Committee member (like Jens E. Pedersen).

3. Tell Us About Your Idea: In your message, please include:

   • A brief title and description of your proposed talk/workshop.
   • The type of event you’re interested in (Workshop, Student Talk, etc.).
   • A short bio of yourself.

• Promoting the event across our website, social media, and Discord community.
• Providing the streaming platform (e.g., YouTube Live).
