The event is organized by volunteers of AWS users, with a committee preparing for the last three months.

  • There are 17 sessions with 21 speakers from eight different countries.

  • This is the first community-driven semi-official AWS event in Hong Kong.

  • Over 700 registrations have been received.

  • The event relies on premium sponsors, and Mark, head of professional services in Hong Kong, will give a few words.



The AWS user group community is special because it's community-led and made up of people passionate about AWS.

  • There are over 700 registrations for the event, representing a big and thriving community.

  • Throughout the day, there will be 17 different sessions led by expert AWS users and leaders.

  • Attendees will have the opportunity to learn, network, and get inspired for innovation.

  • The event is different from AWS training and certification as it allows learning from peers and colleagues.

  • AWS is customer-obsessed and values events like this where customers can share knowledge and insights.

  • The event encourages embracing change and using technology like generative AI to transform roles and increase efficiency.

  • The success of the event relies on the participation of all attendees, sponsors, speakers, and co-organizers.

  • The goal is to make this inaugural AWS user group community day in Hong Kong a memorable event filled with knowledge, innovation, and inspiration.
