Hey folks,
The Cloud Foundry EU Summit will be held virtually on October 21-22 in the Central European time zone! We’re looking at half-days (in the afternoon) dedicated to Cloud Foundry. The CFP closes in two days — on Thursday, September 10th — which is soon. Submit your talk and reach out with any questions on Cloud Foundry Slack in #cff-forum.
Very much looking forward to seeing you all, even if it must be virtually.
Take the Cloud Foundry User Survey
