The Adevinta Barcelona office has been a hive of activity during May, hosting five meetups that we organised alongside Barcelona JUG, Business Automation, Codemotion, BcnRust and Tableau.

If you missed them, keep reading to find out all the details and get access to the recordings.
We started off on 17 May with an event organised by Gustavo Martín, Alex Moleiro and Yanina Morales along with Barcelona JUG. We hosted two talks in which the speakers from Atomic Jar and AWS presented the new features of Spring Boot 3.1, and discussed optimising Java for cloud-native applications. The attendees rated the event with an 8.5 out of 10. Watch the recording here.
The following day Lourdes Fuster and Violeta Ruiz, part of the CRM teams from coches.net and Fotocasa respectively, organised together with Business Automation Consultant Gisela Bravo, a panel discussion. It was a conversation where the 35 attendees had the chance to learn, grow and connect with professionals from Adevinta and the companies PdPaola and HolaLuz.
