Touchlab will be attending KotlinConf 2019 in Copenhagen, Denmark. We anticipate the conference to be a milestone event for the development of Kotlin Multiplatform and its community of practitioners and contributors.

If you’re in town, [please let us know](https://touchlabwaitlist.typeform.com/to/b8H0B3) because we’d love to meet with you.

If you’re unable to attend the conference, no worries. We’re hosting a Kotlin Multiplatform Fireside Chat in New York City for engineering managers. We’ll discuss and review all the KMP updates from the 2019 conference. [Register here](https://touchlabwaitlist.typeform.com/to/lo3NMs).

The following is a list of KMP talks we’ll be attending. If you’d like to be notified when the live stream for these sessions is available, [register on the KotlinConf website](https://kotlinconf.com/registration/).
