Satellite: beyond the sessions

With 14 sessions and two keynotes, there’s plenty to do on the first day of Satellite. But make sure to save some energy for socializing, workshops, and after parties while you’re there. Here’s a rundown of events outside of the conference talks you can experience with your Satellite ticket.

Ask GitHub

Don’t miss your chance to chat with a GitHub expert. Whether you have questions about GitHub Enterprise or Electron, GitHub team members will be at Satellite and ready to help you do your best work.

GitHub Professional Services is offering 30-minute complimentary, private consultations. Stop by Ask GitHub while you’re at Satellite to chat with them or sign up on the Satellite site under Ask GitHub.

Build your community

Connect with developers and teams who share your passions.

Wander through art installations, lounges, and food stations to meet developers working on projects like yours, and strike up a conversation with service providers who can improve your GitHub workflow.

This year, you can look forward to interactive art like an ethereal flower garden from Heroku and recharge lounges hosted by AWS and Sentry.

Celebrate with us

After the conference, walk a few blocks over to the after party at Hawker House, one of London’s biggest street markets. Reconnect with developers you met at the conference, meet session presenters, and challenge them all to a game of foosball when you’re done sampling the food stands.

Hone your skills

The second day of Satellite kicks off on May 23 with workshops—practical sessions, where you’ll build something new with experts leading the way. You’ll have your choice of workshops for €99 like “GitHub and the Internet of Things: Automate IoT Hardware”, “Electron: Start to Finish”, “Creating an InnerSource Culture”, and “Build a ChatBot”.

Space is limited and workshops are almost sold out, so make sure to register for workshops when you get your ticket.
