Sonatype Hosts Global Gatherings of DevSecOps Leaders and Innovators

by Katie McCaskey on October 4, 2019

The month of October is dedicated to intimate gatherings of DevSecOps professionals, thought leaders, and decision makers in cities across North America and Europe.

Participants tell us that these forums and roundtables foster dynamic, collaborative conversations.

Reviewing What Works and Looking Ahead

Too often, you attend an in-person event, only to feel overwhelmed. There is so much going on – sponsored booths, hundreds, if not thousands, of people, and a long list of sessions, which unfortunately compete for your attention. And, ultimately, the conversations you were hoping to have with your peers, never happen.

We’ve created the DevSecOps Leaderships Series to counterbalance that feeling – and provide a safe, open space for real conversation to happen. We host three kinds of curated gatherings: forums, roundtable dinners, and summits. Each event is structured to facilitate discussion between small groups of professionals united by industry, regulation oversight, and/or geography. Participants differ on their DevSecOps implementation journey, providing a relaxed learning and networking environment where peers can share stories, strategies, and insights.

Sponsorships Available

Central to all of the conversations are supply chain automation and why open source governance is critical to organizations. The mix of people provides a unique look into the ongoing evolution of modern software development, and a glimpse of what’s coming next.

For example, last week we kicked off the North American leg of the DevSecOps Leadership Roundtables in Charlotte, North Carolina, with leaders from Duke Energy, and our CEO Wayne Jackson. There, they discussed how open source security practices further innovation and yield competitive differentiation.

In Madrid, Spain discussions at our DevSecOps Leadership Forum focused on accelerating software production and aligning security initiatives from speakers like David Jones (Credit Suisse), Enrique Cervantes Mora (Repsol), and Juan Jose Torres Garcia (KPMG).
