LP Committee

The allocators shaping the room.

The Summit is curated by an LP Committee of active allocators.

Committee members review every GP application, help decide who is invited, and recommend the programming, from session topics to the questions worth asking. The result is a room built around real allocator priorities, with GPs who have already been vetted by the people they came to meet.
