The organisers of the annual Nordic Game conference are looking for potential speakers.

Talks are to be given across topics such as art, programming, design, social marketing and transmedia.

To submit a proposal, you'll have to present a 300 word report including the session title, a short session summary and a presentation description.

A session takeaway explanation is also accepted, as well as your primary target audience, your professional resume and your contact details.

Presentations will last around 45 minutes each, including a short question and answer session.

The ninth edition of the Nordic Game event will take place in Malmö, Sweden, from 23-25 May. Submissions will need to be sent before Wednesday 1 February 2012.

"It's our intention to further improve on all our well-known conference elements, such as the successful Nordic Indie Night, the Nordic Game Awards, and of course the main conference tracks, but also to introduce new stuff, including an enhanced career and recruitment focus," said Jacob Riis, communications director at Nordic Game.
