If you like to submit yourself as a speaker, please answer the "Call for speakers" as soon as possible. The CFS will close on May 19th. As this is a sponsored event, we have limited funds to cover T&E, but will offer up to NOK 1500,-. Or let speaker's companies who pay for their speakers T&E enlist as sponsors (see details).
