Call for Papers

Any hardware, platforms, tools, services, or products you are presenting need to be based on or supporting RISC-V open standards or collaboration processes. If you are sharing your “How” you developed a product or technology, please highlight any contributions and/or benefits from the use of open source and open collaboration software, hardware, and processes. Avoid pure sales or marketing pitches; these talks will be rejected due to the fact that they take away from the integrity of our events, and are rarely well-received by conference attendees. The RISC-V Summit covers a broad spectrum of activities including academic, research, commercial, open-source, and proprietary – all abstract submissions are considered on a merit and non-discrimination basis by the technical program committee made up of representatives across the full RISC-V community.

RISC-V International is dedicated to providing a harassment-free experience for participants at all of our events. All presenters will be required to review and follow our Code of Conduct.

You will be asked to select the “Track” in which you’d like to submit - Technical or Industry. Each proposal may be submitted to only one track, so please review all carefully before making your selection. We understand some proposals could potentially fit into multiple topic areas. Don’t worry, our program chairs are working together to move proposals around as needed for additional review.

Panel submissions must include the confirmed names of all panelists and moderators in the initial submission to be considered. In addition, RISC-V International does not accept submissions with all-male panels in an effort to increase speaker diversity.

Complimentary Passes For Speakers – One complimentary pass for the event will be provided for the accepted primary and co-speaker per submission. For panel sessions, all panelists will receive a complimentary pass.

There is a maximum of two speakers for speaking sessions (except panels, which have a maximum of 4 speakers + 1 moderator).

Mandatory Slide Submission: All speakers are required to submit a copy of their slide deck by 11:59 PM PDT on Friday, January 15. Slides will be reviewed and approved by the RISC-V team or respective committee.
