ABOUT THE SEATTLE CTO SUMMIT
If you are technical and manage engineers, share problems and get answers at The 2022 Seattle CTO Summit. Whether you want to figure out how to return to the office in a sustainable way, avoid the "great resignation", think through the practicalities of hiring and managing international teams or just learn how to improve your engineering effectiveness using approaches such as DORA metrics, the CTO Summits are designed to help you to learn from top practitioners and to share experiences with your peers. The summit is a single day (9:00 AM -> 7:00 PM), single track summit with 15+ presentations along with plenty of breaks for networking!

What CTO’s say about CTO Summits
The CTO Summit gave me a great opportunity to step back from the daily challenges and think about broader
opportunities to help my team evolve and accelerate.
Ann Funai
SVP Engineering, Under Armour
The CTO Summit series produces some of the highest-quality content, available for engineering leaders.
The speaker lineup is always diverse and passionate about their areas of expertise. I'm not aware of any
other event which packs this much talent and high-quality content into a single day!

event where every talk felt applicable to me as an engineering leader. The topics ranged from managing remote
teams (pre-Covid!) to methods of coordinating a technical re-platforming. Talks were high quality, succinct,
and always had useful takeaways.
Cat Miller
VP Engineering Flatiron Health
Almost by definition, most senior engineering leaders don't have peers at their company that they can share
with and learn from. I always look forward to participating in the CTO Summit events because they offer one
of those rare opportunities to learn from peers, as well as to make and renew connections with colleagues.
They are well-run, collegial, and always worthwhile. I recommend them highly to any senior engineering leader.

It's just so rare to get such a distinguished group of software engineering leaders together to talk about the issues
common to us all. It's a must attend for anyone in technical leadership.

The sessions were high caliber and had a lasting impact on my work this year. As a single-day event in my hometown,
it was easy to work into my schedule.
Jenny Farver Co-CEO 8th Light
For the second year in a row this conference delivers so many great talks in a tiny package. A great return on investment
and so many great connections all in one day.
