Konferenz mit Kind? Kein Problem!

Eine mehrtägige Konferenz kann für Eltern eine echte Herausforderung sein. Deshalb bieten wir auf der INFORMATIK 2025 Kinderbetreuung an – damit alle, die sich vernetzen und weiterbilden möchten, die Möglichkeit dazu haben.

An allen vier Konferenztagen steht eine professionelle Betreuung für Kinder ab drei Jahren bereit.

Support Diversity in Tech: Help Us Sustain Our Internship Program!

The @conservancy Fundraiser is still ongoing, and we need YOUR help to reach our goal!

Your donation ensures:
- Life-changing internships for underrepresented groups.
- Empowerment of diverse voices in open source.
- A more inclusive and innovative tech ecosystem.

Every contribution matters—big or small. Let’s come together to keep creating opportunities that make a difference!

Donate here: https://sfconservancy.org/

Boost to help spread the word! Together, we can sustain this impactful program.

This is the downside of having #DiversityInTech. We have people like Daniel Sup having to be bombared with abhorrent messages like "I'm not a Russian agent" and "please stop harassing teenagers".
