+# Lightning Talks
+
+Lightning talks are designed to be short five minutes long presentations about 
+any topic that you wish to talk about: showing a demo of your code,
+introducing your new project, introducing a cool package or feature, announcements for conferences and meetups, etc.
+
+This year, we collect the topics for lightning talks through an online form and will do a raffle to choose topics. 
+
+If you have a topic you would like to shortly talk about, please submit it [here](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSemMPjtH8kHRCKaStEVecDgxe3dWD9K2iJSREkhDkethCAEHQ/viewform).
