CommCon 2026 Düsseldorf
CommCon 2026 - Call for Papers
What we're looking for
We want talks that are honest, specific, and grounded in real experience.
Show us your work. Tell us what broke. Tell us what surprised you. Tell us what you figured out that nobody else has yet. Our audience can smell a marketing talk from a mile away - so don't write one.
Topics we're especially interested in for 2026:
Voice AI agents and pipelines - the full stack: STT, LLM, TTS, latency, turn detection, tool calling
WhatsApp Business Calling - what the API actually looks like in production
Media over QUIC (MoQ) - where the IETF spec is heading and what it means for real deployments
SIP in the modern world - trunking, registrar design, carrier integration
WebRTC - what's landed in browsers, what's changed, what's still broken
VoIP infrastructure - Kamailio, OpenSIPS, Asterisk, FreeSWITCH, Jambonz, drachtio
Video delivery and transport - low-latency contribution, distribution, broadcast workflows
WHIP/WHEP - the ingest/egress landscape in production
SRT and low-latency streaming
Open source project updates - if you maintain something, we want to hear from you
Security - SIP fraud, STIR/SHAKEN, what keeps you up at night
Open standards - IETF, W3C, wherever the important work is happening
A note on AI talks:
We're embracing the AI moment - but we're keeping the CommCon standard. We want talks about what you've actually built, tested, and deployed. The hype is well documented elsewhere.
If in doubt, submit it. We'd rather review something scrappy and promising than miss a great talk because the abstract wasn't polished.
You can enter proposals until 2026-04-03 23:59 (UTC), 1 month from now.
