Are you thinking about speaking for the first time? There is no better place to start than a Meetup! Our virtual sessions are a safe, welcoming sandbox perfect for practicing your public speaking skills, testing new content, or preparing for larger stages like KCD.

We are looking for:

• Real Stories: Experiences with Kubernetes, DevOps, or Cloud Native transformations.
• Technical Deep Dives: How-to guides, architecture patterns, and code walkthroughs.
• New Trends: AI/ML in the Cloud, Platform Engineering, Wasm, etc.

You don't need to be an expert. If you learned something this week, chances are the community wants to hear about it.
