Mentorship Hub

At JCON EUROPE 2025, we introduced the Mentorship Hub

In 2026 it's back because you loved it that much! Visit the 2. Floor, to help your career to the next level. 

Over the course of all three days of the event, you’ll have the unique opportunity to join Java Champion Bruno Souza and other speakers, open-source leader and Java Champions in interactive small-group discussions. Whether you're refining your career strategy, overcoming challenges, or exploring new opportunities—there is something tailored to your need with personalized guidance.

At JCON EUROPE, I met old friends and made new ones. I had fun, did interviews, enjoyed conversations at the booths, and had deep career conversations that changed my life and the lives of developers that joined me.
