This years Meeting C++ conference offers with 5 Tracks one of the best programs. Unfortunately October 2025 is the worst in sales Meeting C++ ever had.

Next weeks conference offers 3 keynotes by Anthony Williams, Frances Buontempo and James McNellis. The conference will have a heavy focus on safety and security in C++, and offers lots of talks on the new C++20/23/26 standards. Currently there are still 40+ Tickets for Berlin available. So if you have budget to support Meeting C++ with, think about getting a ticket for the onsite or online event! After conference video access is included!

Due to frozen budgets and the general state of some parts of the economy, there is still a lot of space in Berlin for folks to come. Tickets for onsite and online will stay on sale until Wednesday next week. A recent survey on LinkedIn showed that around 43% seem to have frozen funds and 26% seem to have a budget decrease for 2025 in spending for training in C++.

In general its been a hard year for C++ conferences with less attendees than in the prior years. As a hybrid conference Meeting C++ offers for some orgs a way out in spending less on travel but still getting the C++ content of the conference.
