It runs online on October 28, 2026, from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM ET. Atlan co-founder Prukalpa Sankar opens and closes the day.

## Context Collective

A closed-door session for Atlan customers, bringing together practitioners and leaders to share how they're building, what they're learning, and what's working. Once a month, we come together for 45 minutes: one practitioner shares their approach, then the floor opens for candid peer discussion, shared experiences, and practical takeaways.
