Event

A huge part of these conferences are the people that you meet and the community that you have around you. While there was such a huge range of announcements at re:Invent in terms of compute, serverless and AI this year, I wanted to release this blog more on the community aspect of the conference!

Last week, I had the honour of being a guest of AWS for a Riot Games Valorant Championships experience in Los Angeles. I find the game tech sector extremely interesting, as a lot of advances in technology and innovation have originated from game development.

As part of the AWS Community builder Program I have been selected to be a guest of Amazons at the Riot Games Valorant Championships in LA on the 24th August. Before I fly out I wanted to take a deeper look into the AWS and Riot Games partnership and see what technologies they are using and some of the problems they are solving.

This week, I had the incredible opportunity to attend the Athena Program, a women’s leadership workshop led by the inspirational Sandra Lee and hosted by Allstate Northern Ireland and Women In Tech.
