September 2024 FinOps Virtual Summit - Beyond Public Cloud

FinOps continues to evolve and advance, even beyond the scope of public cloud. We recognize practitioners doing FinOps and FinOps-adjacent activies, applying capabilities and principles to other IT spend. Our speakers for our September Summit show our community how they use FinOps (and FOCUS) to make sense of costs beyond public cloud, into SaaS, and more.

We're proud to welcome the following speakers during our Summit: Kumar Yarlagadda (The Heineken Company), Chris Reed (Priceline), Karl Kraft (Walmart), Tammy Burnitt (Shell), and Dean Oliver (FinOps Foundation).

We'll also take a look at FinOps X Europe agenda and what to expect at the event in November!
