This year, we welcome @romeu as our facilitator for the Open Space! A familiar face in software crafters' circles, he'll want to code with us all :D

As a facilitator, he'll explain how we self-organise and guide us through 2+ days of creating and enjoying sessions.

If you're as keen as us to experience what that'll be like: registration is currently open 🎊 .
We meet between the 18th - 21st June in Oxfordshire (UK).

@lisihocke will discuss how to make things a bit more secure than yesterday every day, in her session "How to create a secure development lifecycle" at #SoCraTesUK 's training day on 18th June.

A great opportunity to up your security game, whether you're starting on the journey or already a practitioner.

conference to get maximum benefit and enjoyment!

We'd also like to thank our sponsor this year: Cyber Dojo!

Sponsors are vital at keeping the conference running year after year and are much appreciated 🙏🏻

Thank you to everyone who made SoCraTes UK a great success a couple of weeks ago.

An open space conference only happens thanks to the participants, and the ideas that they bring to the conference:

There were 57 sessions over the two days, covering both technical and non-technical topics.

We'll highlight some of the sessions in the coming weeks!

#SoCraTesUK 2025 is happening in a little over a week, on 29th May - 1st June, once again at Milton Hill House Hotel near Oxford.

Come join a group of software crafters to talk and learn about all aspects of our craft. Because SoCraTes UK is an unconference, the agenda for each day is chosen by us, the participants, each morning.

The hotel currently has a few more free rooms than expected, so if you want to come to the conference then you can still register: https://socratesuk.org/
