This was an intimate event, giving our attendees the opportunity to expand their networks and bounce ideas off of other seasoned DevOps & Infrastructure leaders in the tech community.

Throughout this year so far, we’ve hosted a variety of roundtables with Software Engineering leaders, Data leaders and CDOs, and women in tech leadership. The goal is to create an inclusive space where our network can openly discuss the challenges they face within their teams and share valuable insights and strategies that have worked for others. We’ve had really positive feedback so far on these, which is why we created a similar forum for our DevOps & Security network.

We were joined by Security, Cloud & Platform Leaders for a practical discussion around the biggest challenges facing security leaders right now, all based on valuable discussions we've been having with our network. We packed a lot into 1.5 hours, bringing in 13 Engineering Leaders from varying industries, differing company sizes and all at various stages in their company’s roadmap, sharing different perspectives and insights around developer experience and platform functionality as a service is guaranteed to spark some fascinating conversations. 

A big thank you to Lawrence Jones for taking on the reigns of discussion leader yesterday afternoon, and for everyone that came along to make the event a great success too. 🇺🇦 Dmitri L., Ulrich K., Marco F. Delaurenti, Anand Krishnan, Will Ferguson, Ayman Elwany, Ernest Claassens, Jimmy MG Lim, Joel van Velden, George Anagnostopoulos, Maurizio Abba, Rasika Jayatillake.
 
There were lots of takeaways regarding ownership, publicising roadmaps more effectively to give other teams better visibility, the relationship with the "customers", changing mindsets, and much more.
