Share your story

We’re looking for contributions grounded in real enterprise UX work. Our audience consists of experienced practitioners, so we value talks that go beyond the basics and share meaningful lessons from practice.

Bring us the practical stuff.
The messy stuff.
The lessons learned along the way.

We’re especially interested in talks that are:

  • Practical — useful takeaways others can apply

  • Honest — including challenges and what didn’t work

  • Relevant — built on real experience and moving beyond the basics

Whether you have a polished idea or just the start of one, send it our way.

Why present at Enterprise UX?

Enterprise UX is its own discipline. Designing for professionals means working with complexity, constraints, and systems people rely on every day.

You’ll share your experience with an audience of practitioners who understand that reality and want to learn from it.

Speaking at Enterprise UX means:

  • Sharing your work with 350+ UX professionals

  • Contributing to the Enterprise UX community in the Netherlands

  • Helping move the discipline forward

  • Connecting with others facing similar challenges

FAQ

  • You’ll receive a confirmation once we’ve received your submission and we’ll reach out if we need more information.

    As Enterprise UX has grown in popularity over the years, we expect more submissions. Our program team reviews each proposal carefully. For a selection, we’ll schedule a personal conversation, and will try to put together a balanced program that covers many aspects of Enterprise UX.

  • We’re open to a broad range of enterprise UX topics, including: Design systems, Accessibility, UX metrics, or Design ethics. But don’t let this list limit you. If your idea feels relevant to the Enterprise UX community, we’d love to hear it.

    Topics that are widely covered (such as AI) or very niche may have a lower chance of selection. We’re especially interested in submissions that bring a fresh, practical perspective and offer depth for an experienced audience.

  • Our main formats include:

    • Presentations — in-depth talks or case studies (20–30 min)

    Have another format in mind? We’re open to different formats and always happy to explore new ideas.

  • You’ll be speaking to experienced UX professionals designing enterprise tools and systems.
