Co-locations are hosted by supporters of ABAPConf and the ABAP developer community. MAFINEX will be the home base of ABAPConf 2025 - the keynotes are hosted and streamed from there. Besides that, all co-locations are equal. They will host one content track. SAP experts, and speakers will be at a on site at a co-location. Co-locations might only host a track for one day, or for both event days. Additional activities around ABAPConf might be offered at each location. For instance, an ask me anything session with SAP experts, a Meetup or a workshop.
Call for Speakers
ABAPConf is for developers, by developers. The conference depends on developers that share their experience with other SAP developers. Use this opportunity to show the world how you create SAP solutions using ABAP and / or Fiori. Let others be part of your knowledge and experience. We encourage every SAP developer, be it an expert with years of SAP and speaking experience, or a new joiner to the SAP universe that wants to share lessons learned for the first time to submit a session. Be part of the ABAPConf story and do the first step in turning into a ABAPConf legend.
The registration is a Google forms formular. You can submit more than one talk. Speakers are required to present in person, on-site at an ABAPConf co-location of your choice.

F.A.Q
-
Is ABAPConf for ABAP devs?
Yes. It was and always will be. ABAP developers are full stack developers. In the past, the UI were transactions, reports and Dynpros. The UI is now Fiori (Elements). With including officially Fiori topics by adding FioriConf to ABAPConf, we want to honor the role of a modern ABAP developer: writing ABAP and delivering Fiori apps.
-
Is FioriConf dead?
FioriConf is merged with ABAPConf and will live on. As long as ABAP devs will have to develop Fiori apps, FioriConf will live on. There won't be a separate date for FioriConf or a FioriConf 2025. It is included in ABAPConf 2025.
-
Is ABAPConf an on site only event?
No. We are planning to stream the sessions live to YouTube.
-
What about Watch Parties?
Great! Do it! Host one! Get in touch with us and we will put your watch party on the official watch party list. Here is an example from ABAPConf 2024. We definitely support this. You can count on us and our support.

Is this only for Europe?
No. Everyone is welcomed to participate, onsite or online. As we are from Europe, there is a strong focus on Europe: locations, start time, etc. Everyone can join us: on site or online through the live stream.
-
Will the sessions be recorded?
Yes.
-
Will there be sessions in English?
Yes. In fact, as always, most sessions will be in English. We plan to offer sessions also in German and - depending on a co-location - in a different language too. We want to be were the ABAP devs are.
-
Can my company sponsor the event?
We are excited to collaborate with you in many ways. Currently the sponsor package we offer is to be a location host. A sponsor package for the overall event or to sponsor food, drinks, evening celebration, or to present the company at an on site expo is currently not planned nor offered. Nevertheless, if you think you have a great benefit to offer to us, reach us at abapconf at gmail dot com.
