using std::cpp in Madrid, Spain

This spring marked our third participation in Spain's largest C++ conference, using std::cpp.

Organized by the Computer Science and Engineering Department of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid and supported by the Standard C++ Foundation, the event typically spanned two days. However, this year, due to the number of high-quality talks, it was extended to three days.

Two of our developers gave their talks during the conference. Senior Software Engineer Sebastian Theophil presented “My favorite 5 debugging techniques — Number 5 will surprise you!” while Software Engineer Jonathan Müller introduced attendees to “The New Library On The Block: A strong library foundation for your next project”.

Julia and Anna from our HR team managed a raffle at our booth, offering participants the chance to win prizes including our signature branded socks, reusable straws, multi-charging cables, C++ themed pins, and German pretzels. Our supply of Haribo sweets proved to be a crowd favorite.

The entire team had the chance to speak to attendees and were pleasantly surprised to encounter so many engineers and students from all over the world. The discussions and exchanges with fellow C++ enthusiasts were a pleasure, and we are already looking forward to being back next year. A big thanks to to the organizers and volunteers for an excellent conference!
