TwitchCon has become a place where the influencers on the Twitch video livestreaming service gather. And this year, the event will take place will take place October 20 to October 22 at the Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center in Long Beach, California — and the company wants you to help bring content to its annual party.
Twitch sent out its call for content today for TwitchCon. Members of the livestreaming and broader content creator community are invited to submit session ideas for consideration via TwitchCon.com.
This year’s event is also going to expand beyond gaming, and that’s one of the big questions for livestreaming — will its audience care? That’s one of the reasons that Amazon paid $970 million for Twitch in 2014. Topics will likely hit on new features for Twitch, moderation, monetization, and broadcasting best practices.
Call for content submissions will close on July 3, and Twitch will notify presenters on submissions by July 17.
