Why do so many platform engineering initiatives stall after the first sprint?
Ajay Chankramath, CTO at Brillio, will dive deep into the adoption paradox facing platform teams today, by drawing on field-tested experience and the frameworks, and exploring systemic blockers to adoption, the architecture of trust with dev teams, and how to align platform capabilities with real developer workflows.

In this webinar, expect insights on platform-as-product thinking, internal resistance patterns, and practical blueprints for delivering value fast, without compromising long-term platform integrity.

1. A diagnostic lens to identify and overcome the root causes of platform adoption resistance within your engineering org.
2. A field-tested framework for aligning platform capabilities with developer needs using platform-as-product and DevEx-driven principles.
3. Actionable strategies to accelerate adoption without adding friction - drawing from real-world case studies and scalable implementation patterns

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.
