It’s that time of the year again! Back in 2019, we held our first JetBrains .NET Day Online — a free, live, virtual event where community speakers cover topics they are passionate about, ranging from deep technical .NET content and speakers’ experiences with specific tools and technologies, to personal development.

After a successful 2020 and 2021 edition, we want to again host sessions by community speakers at the JetBrains .NET Day Online 2022 on Tuesday to Thursday, October 25–27, 2022.

We are looking for speakers interested in presenting with us! We welcome all topics that would be relevant to the wider .NET community.
