🎥 PlatformCon Watch Parties
We hosted the official PlatformCon watch party in our San Francisco and Austin offices, where we enjoyed engaging with 70+ guests across both cities! A highlight of the night was the panel talks we hosted with guest panelists from Intuit, LinkedIn, CommerceHub, Esper, and One Medical. We discussed key topics among the platform engineering community, including how to improve the developer experience and reduce cognitive load at your company and how platform engineering can enable dev joy. Do you have any thoughts on this? If so, drop it in the comments below! 

 
LEGO Giveaway
Lastly, we ended the night with a LEGO raffle, with one lucky winner at each watch party. If you did not have the chance to win a LEGO set that event, don't fret! You can still get your own LEGO set and become a Compass Champion at your organization.
