What this session covers

By the year 2030, we will be living in a world where one billion people have the skills and access they need to create software. But between now and then, a question remains: how do we get there? In this keynote presentation, Demetris Cheatham, Chief of Staff to the CEO of GitHub, lays out an aspirational answer, calling on stakeholders to fuel the developer community with the new ways of learning, collaboration, and acceleration we need in the age of AI. To welcome the next generation of software developers, she will set our sights on a more inclusive, connected worldβ€”and invite everyone along for the ride.
