SEPG Europe 2012 is coming to Madrid, Spain on 5-7 June 2012 and the Program Committee is now seeking technical program speakers and student poster presenters to showcase their ¡Passion for Process! at this year's conference.

Interested technical program speakers are invited to submit an abstract for consideration by 11 January 2012 to be part of our compelling speaker line-up. Students have until 20 April 2012 to submit a poster abstract. Both speakers and students will have the chance to share real-world solutions and case studies with a group of software practitioners who are there to learn, engage, and exchange ideas. SEPG Europe 2012 delegates include professionals at all levels and leading educators and researchers from academic institutions, all of whom gather to share a common ¡Passion for Process!

Among other benefits, accepted technical presenters will be given a discounted registration rate of $795, which represents a $550 discount off our full-conference rates. Student poster presenters will receive free full-conference registration.

New for 2012: Collaboration with IEEE Software
We are pleased to offer all technical presenters an opportunity to submit papers for review and acceptance both for an SEI Special Report and possible inclusion as an article in IEEE Software magazine, both to be published after the SEPG Europe 2012 conference. When submitting your presentation abstract, you will be asked to indicate if you are interested in participating in a possible paper submission if accepted.

¡A Passion for Process!
SEPG Europe 2012 is your opportunity to find your passion, present your passion, and promote your passion for software engineering and process improvement. In addition to the rich technical program, the hallmark of the SEPG Europe experience is the abundant networking opportunities. You will have many opportunities to connect with like-minded professionals who are just as passionate as you are about process improvement.
