## Call for Proposals
*Citus Con: An Event for Postgres* is free, virtual, and global developer event \
happening Apr 12-13, 2022. You might even call it a distributed event. No travel is \
involved. And yes, there is a code of conduct. To make things easy for speakers, \
we'll take care of the video recording and production, both for the livestream and \
on-demand talks. Talks are 25 minutes long and in English. The CFP is now open: come \
join us to share what you can do with the world's most advance open source \
database—from the nerdy to the sublime.
## Live Sessions & On-Demand Videos
There will be 3-hour livestreams in 3 different geographies (Americas, APAC, EMEA). \
We're looking for talks from Citus open source users, Azure database customers, \
Postgres and Citus experts from Microsoft, and Postgres community members.
On-demand talks will be pre-recorded in March and published on the Microsoft \
Developer YouTube channel on April 12th.
