THE ONLY DEDICATED SUMMIT RETURNS

Elevating Platform Engineering to a Strategic Business Function

Platform Engineering is redefining how enterprises deliver software at scale - but how do you build a platform strategy that balances speed, stability, and developer experience? The Platform Engineering and Developer Experience Summit is the only event focused exclusively on platform engineering in the enterprise.
 
Join senior platform and software engineering leaders from top global enterprises as they share how they’re building developer-first platforms, enabling self-service, and structuring teams for scale. You’ll gain practical insights into how platform engineering can drive business outcomes by streamlining workflows, enhancing security, and creating the culture and tooling needed to maximise the impact of your engineering teams.

Reviews for #PENGDEXSummit and #ObsSRESummit

"I loved the DevEx summit. I got the chance to learn from industry leaders about how to move beyond my background and to start to think about how to transform my entire organization around empowering the people around me."

Lead SRE, n26

"Observability Summit was indeed a conference any Observability enthusiast would love to join, speakers from diverse geographies with challenging problems and real solutions. Appreciate IQPC for organising it."

Associate Director - Enterprise Observability & AIOPs, TIAA GC

"This event got together organisations, allowing me to validate that, regardless of the size and scale of their respective businesses, all have the same problems taming developer experience, and that the majority are trying to solve them in the same way, with varying degrees of success. The future is bright."

Senior Director, Developer Platform, Delivery Hero

"It was great to exchange ideas and concepts within a like minded group and to learn from the different speakers."

Head of Technology Platform Shared Services, TUIGroup

"It was very useful to connect with peers across different organisations, chat about our problems and realise that we are all dealing with the same issues, just at different scale. Seeing how others tackle these and how scale affects a team's effectiveness and composition is something completely experiential that can only be observed, and this conference was a great opportunity to share those learnings."

Head of DevEx and Platform, Trinny London

"I joined the DX Summit in London. I was not expecting to see that many great people in the same room but DX Summit surprised me. Met with many great people, heard about different stories from small scale to large scale. I felt part of a team as Developer Experience."

Director of Engineering, Platform, TomTom

"The developer experience summit provided me with validation on my thoughts and learnings on that we should treat developers and people in general well to get the most of out them. A wide range of attendees gives the ideal opportunity to network, share ideas and values. I definitely took away a lot of value, as I'm sure a lot of other attendees did too."

Technical and Development Director, Envision Pharma Group

"The Developer Experience Summit was very valuable to our team with the variety of speakers presenting from different organizations which gave a holistic picture of actions needed within an organization to enhance the Developer Experience. Our team was energized and excited to come back to work and share our insights from the conference."

Digital Product manager, Volvo Group AB

"Can't recommend the IQPC-organized Summit enough! The expert panels consisting of a blend of industry veterans, open-source contributors and vendor advocates really drove the conversation around the state of Observability forward; discussing real trends, problems and solutions across a variety of use cases and problem spaces."

Director, Observability Platform Engineering, Nike, Inc.

"The Observability and SRE summit brought together a wide and valuable breadth of subject matter experts on the technologies and techniques around modern monitoring, telemetry, observability and reliability engineering that would not be found at any more generalised technology conference."

Head of Enterprise Tech Architecture & Ways of Working, Saxo Bank

"Great conferences with attendance from experts in all different areas. The networking opportunities are immense, so sign yourself up to the next one!"

SRE Competence Center, UBS

"Attending this event has been very valuable for deepening our understanding of observability and enhancing our strategy around it. The insights shared on best practices, tools, and real-world applications have been really useful as well and might help us shape our observability framework. Engaging with industry experts and peers also provided fresh perspectives. Highly recommended for anyone involved into observability work."

Tech Lead, SEB

"I loved the DevEx summit. I got the chance to learn from industry leaders about how to move beyond my background and to start to think about how to transform my entire organization around empowering the people around me."

Lead SRE, n26

"Fantastic, knowledgeable speakers providing inspiration on the art of the possible!"

"Participating in this event as both a speaker and panelist was an incredibly rewarding experience. It offered a valuable platform to exchange ideas, gain insights from industry peers, and dive into current trends. The quality of discussions, combined with opportunities to connect with other professionals, made it a truly enriching experience. I walked away with new perspectives and practical takeaways that I’m excited to apply in my work. I highly recommend this event to anyone looking to expand their knowledge and network within the industry."
