Snowflake's Berlin Office Turns 5 ??
Our Berlin office celebrated its 5th anniversary in style. As Frank’s first visit to the office, it was only fitting to host an All Hands meeting with Neeva founder and current Snowflake Sridhar Ramaswamy, including sharing ways to amp it up and getting excited for the Berlin DCWT stop soon after. It wasn't all cake and bubbly; Snowflake experts came together for a Technical Advisory Council to get valuable feedback on keeping the Data Cloud agile and relevant.?
Snowflake Wins Sustainability Award in Denmark ??
In Copenhagen, Denmark, Snowflake joined forces on a GenAI powered carbon optimization project with Amazon, Amdocs, Carbon Footprint and Vodafone to make meaningful strides toward sustainability in the telcom industry.
