About this event

Event Overview

Japan Community Day is set to be a comprehensive and engaging gathering for professionals interested in cloud-native technologies. It will bring together attendees of KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Japan and members of various local meetup communities, Special Interest Groups (SIGs) and Subgroups within CNCJ to foster collaboration, learning, and contribution to the cloud-native ecosystem. The event is structured to offer multiple tracks with multiple themes, each targeting a different aspect of cloud-native development and community involvement.

Sessions on multiple themes are arranged by local communities and SIGs, some of which are accepting CFP submissions. For more details, please refer to the "Additional Information and Call or Speakers for Each Local Community".

The event will be held at the NTT DOCOMO Open Lab in Odaiba, located near the KubeCon+CloudNativeCon Japan venue. This event will take place on the day before the main KubeCon+CloudNativeCon conference.

Taking place on the pre-day of KubeCon+CloudNativeCon Japan, this event offers a unique chance to engage with the cloud-native community before the main conference begins. Participants will be able to network, learn, and collaborate in a vibrant setting, setting the stage for the larger event. The combination of specialized tracks, including talks, training, contributing, and maintainer sessions, along with lunch and networking, ensures that attendees get the most out of their time in Japan and make valuable connections ahead of KubeCon+CloudNativeCon.
