Slide Deck Templates

If you don't want the hassle of creating your own slide templates for your presentation we invite you to use one of our official DrupalCon speaker templates. Please be sure to include a Session Title slide for session archiving purposes as well as a Session Evaluation slide to remind attendees to evaluate your session.

Speaker Badges

Help us build momentum as we begin the countdown to DrupalCon. Add one of our awesome DrupalCon Speaker Badges to your personal website.
