like every year we have to overcome some challenges in Paris two years ago we had the very beginning of kovid we did the conference like two weeks before the French lockdown so we didn't even know where exactly what kovid was or what we should do so we said like okay guys just behave and follow the Q a from who uh so we tried our best and the next year we thought that we were finally out of kovid and it turned out we had to deal with a huge Heat Wave and remember that it was kind of the hottest day in France for the last centuries hopefully this year not only do we have Wi-Fi but we also have AC you wouldn't imagine how many emails we got during

the preparation saying is is there AC like am I going to be fine like what should I wear and so on so hopefully today and tomorrow we should be fine uh there's a heat wave coming to France and Europe again but it seems like Paris should be out of the the the biggest heat of the wave so let's see how we How We Do now into the real thing you're looking for the agenda here you go you can scan this QR code to go to the agenda or peruse hcc.io agenda there's different ways you can filter the different talks as you will see there are lots of different rooms we try to have names that you can identify quickly
