We’re bringing more to AWS re:Invent 2025

At Slalom, we help people and organizations dream bigger, move faster, and build better tomorrows for all. Few places are more conducive to those goals than AWS re:Invent. This annual conference hosted by AWS brings together tech enthusiasts, professionals, and experts for a week of innovation and exploration in cloud technology.

This year, Slalom is a Gold sponsor and you can find us at booth 625. Outside of the Expo, we’re hosting customer meetings, exclusive customer events, participating in speaking sessions, and gathering insights from an eventful week.
