The KonferenSE 2023
Competence day for Engineering, Data Science, Product Management and UX Design
The KonferenSE is Klarna's annual internal conference dedicated to tech, data, product management and, for the first time this year, UX design. In other words, a day full of Klarnauts holding talks ranging from cutting-edge technologies and software development, to product launches, visions, and ways of working. All in an effort to spread knowledge and get to know each other better
