The API Platform Conference is a two-day event showcasing the latest trends, best practices, and case studies surrounding API Platform and its ecosystem, including PHP, Symfony, JavaScript, AI, FrankenPHP, performance, or tools. With nearly 30 talks delivered in English and French, the conference is a must-attend for innovative companies, project leaders, and skilled developers.

If you're a developer, CTO, or decision-maker specializing in these technologies, this event is designed for you!

The call for papers for API Platform Conference 2025 opens on January 7 and runs until March 23. Final speakers will be announced starting May 14. Submit your pitch, and with a bit of luck, you could join us for this special anniversary edition!

Informations

  • The API Platform Conference is an international event held in France, featuring two parallel tracks over two days in both English and French.
  • The talks are 20 or 40 min (Q&A included).
  • The event is hybrid: your talk will be streamed live online and recorded. Unless you advise otherwise, it will be published on our YouTube channel after the event.
  • Submitting multiple proposals is encouraged, but it does not necessarily increase your chances of selection.
  • While we prefer original content, submitting a previously presented conference topic is not grounds for elimination. Each talk is unique and never delivered in the same way.
  • Speakers are expected to uphold the same Code of Conduct as attendees and staff.
