conference in 2022!
We’re so glad to be back. We’ve got a lot of reflecting to do after the disruption we all experienced. Were we, technical publications professionals and our organisations, prepared for the upheaval of the pandemic? Are we smarter today after the experience? How did Covid affect our work and the tools, processes and procedures we use?
While we reflect on lessons learned, we’re thinking about the future of content and how to prepare for the new world of content work. Our own CJ Walker is speaking on the content workplace of the future on 3 June.
This is a really cosy conference. There are no simultaneous tracks, so you can participate in everything – everyone in one room.

But content, be it technical documentation, learning materials, graphics, or UI and UX elements, doesn’t exist in the void. Numerous tools and services are needed to create and maintain content. Join soap! to help our wonderful crowd see how you can help them get ready for whatever the future holds. We will be happy to help you.

Testimonials
“Come for the talks, stay for the people”
Michał Skowron, Speaker
soap! is like this family gathering you always dream of, but rarely have with your relatives. Everyone is your cousin, but you’re actually happy to see them, get a toast with them, and have fun! Always a pleasure to be there.
