Making the case internally for attending the Maintainer Days
We understand that getting approval for travel is a process many people need to work on with their employers and we want to help you with those discussions. Here is some information that could be useful for you – if there is any additional information you could use, please let us know.
- For people who haven't attended in person Hyperledger maintainer events in the past, these events have been very productive and generative for the attendees. For reference, you can see details of the last in person Maintainer event in 2019 and earlier Hackfests (the original name for Maintainer events) on the wiki.
- The Maintainer Days will be a great chance to network with people from other organizations. If you choose to also attend the Hyperledger Member Summit later that week you'll have a chance to meet with even more people from the member organizations in the Hyperledger community.
- We've organized this event to coincide with other events in the area you may also want to attend:
- Event in area before:
- ETHGlobal San Francisco on Oct 18-20
- Events in area after:
- Hyperledger Member Summit on Oct 23-24 (All maintainers are invited to attend this year even if they’re not from a member company)
- TechCrunch Disrupt on Oct 28-30
- Event in area before:
