**Given the significant lack of female representation in the field of cloud computing, we fully comprehend the value of fostering inclusive and safe spaces. Therefore, we extend a warm invitation to FLINTA individuals who are interested in being part of our User Group.
! Please note that this user group is specifically for women and FLINTA only. If you do not identify as one of these please check out the AWS User Group Berlin !
At the AWS Women's User Group in Berlin, we have a strong and unequivocal code of conduct in place to create a safe and empowering environment for all.
