Why does the Call for Participation (CfP) end four months before re:publica 2023? How will you be able to include the most current politics and trends?

The earlier we select the sessions, the better we can bundle them into thematic strands, consult with them, fine-tune them - and, last but not least, enable early planning for the participants. However, we always leave a few slots free until May for important current politics and trends, so that we can include topics in the program at short notice.
