Looking for something a bit more smaller scale?
- The Developer and Product lounge: This year at SaaStr Annual will have a special place just for developers and engineers. Located in the Expo Hall, attendees in these fields will have exclusive access to a lounge where they can kick their feet up, catch up on some work and network with other great minds in the industry.
- Plato Mentorship Sessions: Plato mentorship sessions are group discussions that are led by leaders in the product and engineering field. This will be a conversation for a group of ten, organized by the mentorship platform, Plato. These sessions are being held twice at back-to-back times, so if the topic you want fills up, be sure to check the other timings for a second chance at a mentor you wanted to connect with or if you want to meet with someone different.
