We’re super excited to be attending KubeCon 2022 in Detroit as a sponsor. There will be a huge array of talks, workshops, and events to catch this year, not to mention the after parties!
Detroit is a city steeped in history. Famously known as “Motor City”, Detroit and Henry Ford pioneered the mass production of automobiles in the early 1900s. The city also has a rich musical history, being the birthplace of the legendary Motown record label and the Techno music genre.
Through our official Civo Detroit logo, designed by renowned artist and Detroit-native Ndubisi Okoye, we've tried to capture some of that history.
From our booth at the event, we’ll be giving away t-shirts featuring our Civo Detroit logo!
