 Principal Software Engineer and Founding Member, Fermion and Wasim Co-Chair, Michelle Danani. How's everyone doing today? I need to hear a little more. I love the words right there. Nice, nice, nice. Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to WasimCon. And thank you so much for joining us at the inaugural event, at this inaugural event. I am Michelle Danani, and I am thrilled to be your emcee for today. I hope you all enjoyed your workshops this morning by a show of hands. Who went to a workshop this morning? OK, that's a lot of you. And who did the hallway track? Nice, and I saw y'all there. We have a lot of great content yet to come. But before we start our program, I'd like to take a moment to say some thank yous and go through some housekeeping items. So first off, a huge thank you to all of our sponsors, especially our diamond sponsors, Cloud Native Computing Foundation, Cosmonic, Fermion, and Medocura. Thank you as well to our platinum sponsors, Cloudflare and Microsoft Azure. We would not be here today without your support. Also, another giant thank you to our program committee members and our chairs. These are the people that reviewed talk submissions, curated keynotes, and built out the schedule, and things like that. They did an amazing job at putting together this program for us today, which is great, but it's also a problem. Because we're going to leave here today. We're going to leave the keynotes, and we're going to have to make some hard decisions. And you're probably like, oh my gosh, Michelle, how do I figure out where to go next? Well, I've got the schedule for you. You're going to have to take a look at that. You can check out the back of your badge, check out the QR code there, scan it. You'll have the schedule. Boom. And then you can make your hard decisions. All of them are great, because it's a wonderful schedule. So after our event today, we'll have an on-site reception and sponsor showcase. Please be sure to join us. It'll be right outside of this room in the foyer. There will be drinks. There will be advertisers. There will be networking. It's going to be a good time. So we hope to see you there. I also want to remind everyone that we have an events code of conduct that everyone attending has agreed to abide by, and that we will enforce. In short, please treat everyone with respect and professionalism. Everyone should feel welcome and included. And if you have any concerns, please go to registration on the ground floor, and the events team will assist you. Last but not least, thank you all again for being here. Your presence and participation is much appreciated. And yes, we have a lot of great things to share with you. There will be a lot of awesome presentations, but this is about more than that. It's about community building, getting to know one another, sharing ideas, collaborating across all of us. So say hi to your neighbor if you feel comfortable. Ask the sponsors what they're working on. Open up your laptop. Show folks what open source things you're doing. And with that, let's get started.
