A Decade of Cloud Native: A Manhattan Homecoming

Did you know that a little over 10 years ago, the first-ever CNCF board meeting was held at the New York Times office right here in Manhattan?

That’s why we’ve decided to return to our roots for this special community gathering. We’re celebrating a decade of innovation by bringing together the brightest minds in the ecosystem—from the original governing board to our local NYC meetup members—to discuss where we’ve been and, more importantly, where we’re going next.

• Reflect: A nostalgic look back at the birth of the CNCF and the early days of Kubernetes in the very room where the journey started.

• Innovate: Opening remarks from industry veterans on the evolving cloud-native landscape.

• Connect: An evening of high-value networking over pizza and drinks with the community that helped build the foundation of the modern cloud.
