Platform Engineers Paris

80% of engineering organizations will have an Internal Developer Platform (IDP) by 2026, and 88% of executives think platform engineering is a key driver of high performance, according to Gartner. The question is how you get there as an organization. Learn how others are mastering this journey and becoming recognized platform engineering leaders in the community.

In this session, Luca will break down:

• What are the quantifiable benefits of becoming a Platform Engineering Certified Organization, for both Enterprises and Service Providers
• How to align newly consolidated teams under a shared vision when launching platform initiatives and how to communicate value effectively to executives and stakeholders
• How to secure internal buy-in and drive developer adoption with a Platform-as-a-Product mindset

After a 30-minute talk there’ll be a 15-minute Q&A, for which we encourage you to submit questions in advance.
A webinar recording and related materials will be shared with all attendees after the event.
