Public Speaking

My journey in public speaking began in 2010 at the openSUSE Installfest, where I delivered my first talk in the open source arena at the Lecture Theatre II of the Faculty of Law & Management, University of Mauritius. Since then, I have spoken at numerous meetups, summits, and international conferences, sharing insights on Linux, open source, and cloud-native technologies.

2021

The year 2021 was marked by a series of restrictions imposed by the Government of Mauritius on public gatherings. As a consequence, meetups were not being held and the it became obvious at some point that we wouldn't be able to organize the Developers Conference, due to uncertainties regarding the dates for venue booking.
