It’s been a busy few weeks and we’ve seen a flurry of applications for speaking at GCAP 2026. However, we know that quite a few of you have been busy with different conferences, events, and many are jet-setting off to BitSummit next week.

If you felt like you just couldn’t quite make the deadline last week with all the work and preparation you’re up to, don’t worry – we’ve extended the deadline for GCAP speaker submissions to the 29th of May.

If you've got someone you want to see speak at GCAP, or if you meet someone exciting at BitSummit - share the details with them! You never know, you might just be the last thing that ticks them over into speaking.
