💥 Free to attend – limited spots available
The Iceberg train doesn't stop.
We just wrapped the legendary Iceberg Summit in SF — and if you were there, you already know: this thing is moving fast. The May edition of the Bay Area Iceberg Meetup picks up right where the Summit left off.
Whether you went to the Summit and want to keep the conversation going, or missed it and want to catch up with the people who were on stage — this is your room.
Why this one matters
Iceberg adoption is accelerating across production stacks — analytics, ML, governance, multi-engine architectures, AI workloads, you name it. Expect 6 talks across 2 hours covering real production lessons, followed by networking with the people actually shipping this stuff.
Got a story worth telling? Take the mic.
Running Iceberg in production? Building on top of it? Got a hot take that deserves 20 minutes of stage time? Submit a CFP — we want to put you on.
👉 Submit to the CFP: https://forms.gle/pRNv8KRYscxnKrz5A
Talks are 20 minutes. Vendor pitches get politely declined. Real production stories get the spotlight.
Why you should be there
Talks that respect your time — technical, specific, no fluff
The right room — engineers and architects from teams shipping Iceberg, not just talking about it
Real networking — actual conversations, not "stand awkwardly with a name tag" networking
Real food — we're skipping the sad pizza tradition for a catered spread (think unagi don, stir-fry pots, potstickers, and mango pomelo sago for dessert)
