Morning AI Jam

We will be having an informal roundtable discussion about what the latest tools and techniques we are using to improve how us and our teams build, code and do our craft. ​Right now we are witnessing a massive change to how software is written and an arms race between the various big tech businesses that are hosting our code. The tools are evolving so rapidly it is difficult to keep up. Don’t try to do it alone, join like minded forward thinking individuals like yourself as we showcase our experiments, results, and insights in an attempt to be the top performers in our field.

Cloud War Games LIVE: Real Teams. Real Chaos. In-Person Showdown - ForwardFest

Join us in person for the ultimate test of cloud engineering skill, speed, and strategy. Cloud War Games LIVE is a hands-on, high-intensity competition where cloud pros battle real-world Amazon Web Services (AWS) outages in real time—on stage, in front of a live audience. This is not your average tech talk. It’s a tactical team showdown where infrastructure breaks, and only the most prepared will rise.

CTO Think Tank MasterMind

CTO Think Tank MasterMind

​Join other technical leaders on their journey to lead their teams through the exciting but turbulent business landscape. ​In this master mind group we will share insight on where we think the industry is headed, what technology trends to keep an eye on and much more. ​The event will last an hour. We will start with introductions, then go around robin giving updates on what we are working on, what experiments we are running, what we are hoping to learn from them. ​If you had any particular problems you wanted the group to jam on you could throw them out there or if you had any specific asks of the group, like for feedback on an idea or connections, you could do that during your turn. The group then will take turns using their unique experience and viewpoint to pick apart your problem and brainstorm a solution. ​There are several other formats I intend to play with in the future but for the first one this is it.
