Really looking forward to doing another panel-based podcast recording with a live audience at the @dddsouthwest.com conference next week! Such a great conference, and it's amazing to have the podcast be part of it 😊 #DDDSouthWest2026 #UnhandledException dddsouthwest.com

I've finally got round to submitting my new talk! Had a great time last year and really excited about what I've been working on for 2026. There's still plenty of time to submit if you're thinking about doing it.

Each January, I take the badges from all the events I spoke at last year, frame them, and hang them on the wall. Here's 2025: 20 talks, 7 workshops, 18 events, 11 countries. @ndcconferences.com @fronteers.bsky.social @techorama.bsky.social @dddsouthwest.com @oredev.org @azuredevsummit.bsky.social

Just two days to go and we’ll be here with #DddSW2025!

And that was that for another year - see you next year folks - here is a little write up from one of our organisers if anyone was curious what goes into DDD SW and why we love doing it so!

After an insanely busy week with DDD South West finishing, I thought I'd write up a quick post based on a few conversations I had during the run up and at the event itself lnkd.in/gxpV55yk

Well, this is all a bit different from me at @dddsouthwest.com this year! Thanks very much to everyone there for giving me the opportunity to do my first talk!

#dddsw2025 was a blast. So many cool and friendly people. Such a fantastic event. Thanks @dddsouthwest.com for building an amazing free community tech conference

And that's an end to a great day at @dddsouthwest.com Until next year, thanks to all the organisers, speakers and sponsors for putting on a fantastic event. #DDDSW #dddsw2025

Big thank you to the organisers, speakers, and sponsors for making this community-driven conference such a fantastic event. #DDDSW #DDDSW2025 🧡 @dddsouthwest.com

The last couple of weeks have been mega busy...! As well as having a ton of new #umbraco projects launching very soon, we hosted the #umBristol meetup (on a farm 🐷), senior dev @joe.gl spoke at @dddsouthwest.com, and some of our team even found time for a get-together! 🍕

Final Thank you to one of our favourite conferences and a supporter of DDD South West, @ndcconferences.com , who this year will be supporting us and giving away a prize of a ticket to NDC London 2026!

Danielle is one of our fantastic speakers, giving up her time and sharing her experience with the community - we couldn't put these events on without speakers like the amazing Danielle! Thanks you ❤️🙏
