The AWS user group community is special because it's community-led and made up of people passionate about AWS

• Throughout the day, there will be 17 different sessions led by expert AWS users and leaders.

• The success of the event relies on the participation of all attendees, sponsors, speakers, and co-organizers.
• The goal is to make this inaugural AWS user group community day in Hong Kong a memorable event filled with knowledge, innovation, and inspiration.
