Join our charity event to support the people of Ukraine.
Our 4-hour, two-track, virtual event will be hosted on the 16th of March 2023.
We’re planning to have two tracks full of Cloud Native talks delivered to you online and it’s all for a good cause.
A total of 8 hours of cloud native and open source talks with a variety of topics: from Kubernetes to Open Source community best practices.
We look forward to receiving applications from experienced speakers as well as newbies. Please use the official CNCF CfP system; it's open between 16th of December 2022 and 31st of January 2023, while speakers and agenda will be announced shortly after. We welcome lightning talks, Birds of a Feather sessions and regular, 25-minutes talks. We support live as well as pre-recorded sessions.
The KCD Ukraine is a community-organized, not-for-profit, charity event, providing free access to the event while encouraging you and/or your company to donate to our crowdfunding.
All funds raised will be split even between Razom for Ukraine and Operation Dvoretskyi. The fundraising will be open from now on, so you can start donating today.
We also encourage you to spread the word about the event - the more people will participate, the bigger the chance our help will be impactful.
We strongly encourage companies to take part in our crowdfunding initiative. Here are the benefits your company can count on when donating to the fundraiser.
