About sales or marketing pitches

In order to promote more vendors or users to participate, Cloud Native Taiwan User Gorup allows sales or marketing pitches to be placed on the last few pages of each session. The number of pages will depend on the length of the presentation, up to a maximum of 2 pages, not including the opening and closing.

Important Notes

• All speakers are required to adhere to CNCF Code of Conduct
• Avoid sales or marketing pitches and discussing unlicensed or potentially closed-source technologies when preparing your proposal; these talks are almost always rejected due to the fact that they take away from the integrity of our events, and are rarely well-received by conference attendees.

CODE OF CONDUCT

CNCF and its project communities are dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for participants at our events. All submitters are required to abide by our Code of Conduct
