Macstock IX: Call for Presenters!

by | Feb 11, 2025 | Macstock IX, Macstock News

Jill presenting at Macstock 8. Right hand extended, pointing toward presentation on screen.The Macstock Community is made up of an amazing group of people from all walks of life who bring a broad range of interests and experiences to Macstock each summer, so we’re always looking for ways to help bring YOU to Macstock’s stage to share your unique twist on tech or this year’s theme!

Macstock IX’s theme is “Share!” and we’re looking for talks that best grab hold of this year’s theme and run with it because Macstock in 2025 will be 3 whole days! And unlike last year, we’re shaking things up a bit and sprinkling the workshops throughout the 3-Day Weekend schedule!

We are especially looking for fresh perspectives and voices to present from Macstock’s stage, so everyone is encouraged to submit a speaking proposal. Even if you’ve never presented before or somehow feel like maybe you shouldn’t apply, please know that Macstock is for everyone and no matter your background or experience level, we want to hear your ideas!

Need some suggestions to get the brain gears turning?

Regular Macstock attendee John (thanks John!) suggested a few topics that he’d be interested in hearing someone SHARE a talk on and I’ve added a few to the list as well. We’ve certainly covered some of these in presentations at prior Macstocks, but no matter the topic, there’s always something new to learn!

  • Hazel
  • Keyboard Maestro
  • Alfred
  • Notion
  • Apple Intelligence
  • Pages, Numbers, Keynote (aka iWork Suite)
  • iMovie or GarageBand
  • Productivity tips & tricks for macOS communications apps: Mail/Calendar/Reminders/Notes/Contacts

If you are interested in presenting at Macstock this year, please click the button below to submit your talk idea OR reach out to me and we’ll discuss your idea!
