Community Leaders Program
Docker’s Community Leaders are volunteers from all over the world who are passionate about the use of modern tools to change the way people build, ship and run modern software.
These leaders help to drive the overall Docker community and ecosystem forward by actively engaging with other members of the community through virtual or in-person meetups, hackathons, conducting workshops and conferences.
They also play a key role in growing the Docker ecosystem by helping to build and nurture local communities.
