What you likely need
Your Festival events should convert your deep technical credibility — the O'Reilly book, AutoCon talks, NAF Framework work — into founder signal and deal flow. The highest-leverage gatherings for you are ones that bridge the network automation engineering world with seed-stage investors who fund infra and data center plays, and that help you formalize your angel activity into visible co-investment relationships. You'll also benefit from small tactical sessions with founders who've successfully launched infra products publicly and turned conference visibility into hires.
