What our Community has to say...

CTO Craft Con was the best conference I’ve been to. The range of speakers, the varied format, the great organisation and facilitation, and the location all made it a great event.

As a tech leader, you can often feel limited in the people you can speak to within your organisations, especially in smaller start-ups/scale-ups. CTO Craft is a great community that gives you access to tech leaders of all experiences and events like CTO Craft Con gives you exposure to topics and relevant insights that you can take back to your day-to-day roles and teams. A great event I would definitely recommend.

CTO Craft Con is a great experience to surround yourself with innovative leaders. It is an unrivalled sense of camaraderie. It’s not just a conference; it’s an immersion in a supportive and nurturing community that uplifts and encourages you every step of the way. Whether you’re a seasoned leader or new to the space, you’ll feel a sense of belonging and inclusion that will fuel your learning and propel you forward.

CTO Craft Con is packed with leaders in tech in London. You'll hear from the big names both tactical and strategic advice through keynotes and panel talks. You'll also have the opportunity to ask them anything you want as they chat with folks after the talks. There's plenty to learn, and plenty of useful people to meet.

A great conference filling a big gap in the CTO conference scene. A space for engineering leaders, by engineering leaders, to discuss the unique challenges of the profession in a whirlwind world of technology evolution.

Given what CTO Craft managed to pull off in their first conference, you probably don't want to miss out on this one!
