**Our Agenda:**

• 6:00pm - 6:30pm: Virtual Mingle and Happy Hour
• 6:30pm - 8:00pm: Introductions & Our featured speaker

**Abstract:**

`stackalloc` is a keyword that has existed since C# 1.0, yet was a little-used feature. Recently it has gotten significant attention thanks to the introduction of `Span of T` in .NET Core, largely because it offers significant performance improvements in the right circumstances. We'll be looking at `stackalloc` in-depth, not just to gain performance, but how it works, the sharp edges and security concerns that come with it, and how to avoid those concerns.

**About Our Speaker: Kevin Jones**

Kevin Jones lives in Alexandria Virginia, doing security architecture for GitHub, and helps maintain .NET's security APIs.
