BEAM Virtual Meetup - The Erlang Ecosystem and Beyond

Our first virtual Meetup was a massive success we are aiming to repeat with two great lineup of Erlang and Elixir talks. When done, we will move into breakout rooms where we can socialise in smaller groups whilst the speakers and organisers move from room to room to say hi and answer questions.

Please register so we can plan accordingly. We've increased capacity, but still have a limited number of places.
