Submission Flows
Submission Flows are used to collect content from your speakers and submitters. They can be used:
- To run a Call for Papers with a review process
- To gather speaker details for produced conferences
- To gather files (e.g. slide decks, handouts, audition videos etc)
- To run award entry and judging processes
- To run application, review and decision processes
Submission flows are very flexible and configurable. You can use them to map out your own workflow and to automate many of the important, but time-consuming steps, like emailing submitters and tracking responses etc.
Here’s an overview of Submission Flows in Lineup Ninja.
Depending on which version of Lineup Ninja you are using, you may want to collect speaker details via the Speaker Portal (as opposed to a Speaker Invitation Call for Paper). For more information regarding this process, please follow this link.
Call for Papers & Speaker Invitations
Content gathering processes for conferences and events tend to fall into one of two main categories:
- Call for Papers/Speakers - an open call for event content
- Speaker Invitations - a curated program with hand-picked speakers for specific sessions
Large events may run a call for papers for one part of the program, and speaker invitations for another.
Call for Papers
In a Call for Papers/Speakers, you create an open invitation for speakers to propose topics.

You may prefer to exert more editorial control by writing your own session titles and then inviting specific speakers to deliver them.
