In the wake of COVID-19, many cloud native communities are struggling to regain their former footing.

This talk draws inspiration from Stardew Valley to provide actionable strategies for reviving and revitalizing your cloud native community meetup. Just like restoring a farm, revitalizing a community requires careful planning, dedication, and a touch of gamification.

We'll discuss the strategies that were used for a successful comeback of the Barcelona community such as how to engage older and new organizers, finding captivating topics and events, securing venues and sponsors, attracting speakers, or establishing a regular meetup schedule.

Join me as we transform a community from a neglected patch of land back into a thriving hub of learning and connection!
