Sponsoring Laracon US 2026 in Boston
Redberry is a Silver sponsor of Laracon US 2026, held July 28–29 at SoWa Power Station in Boston - the third consecutive year we have sponsored the conference.
Four of us will be there for the full week: Gaga Darsalia, our CEO; Dati Chkhikvishvili, Chief of Business; Nika Jorjoliani, Engineering Director; and Nini Khvedeliani, our CMO.
We have sponsored a Laravel conference every year since 2023, starting with Laracon EU - four consecutive years there now, Laravel Live UK since 2024, Laracon US for the third consecutive year, and Laravel Live Denmark for the first time this year.
The talks are always in the spotlight, but the community is the reason we sponsor the conference.
“Every one of these trips ends the same way: a bunch of 'we should really do this' moments. Then the fun part is actually making them happen“
-Gaga Darsalia, CEO, Redberry
That has held across three years of Laracon US, four of Laracon EU, and the Laravel Live events in between. It is also why we treat sponsorship as an investment in the Laravel partner relationship rather than a marketing line item. As a Laravel Premier Partner - one of thirteen worldwide - we will be spending time with the Laravel team and fellow partners while we are in Boston.
How to find us?
Look for the SHIP HAPPENS shirts. We have a booth, a game worth playing, and merch worth taking home - and four people wearing the same conspicuous shirt for two days straight.
If you would rather lock in a time than hope to bump into us, message any of us on LinkedIn - Gaga, Dati, Nika, or Nini.
What we are there to talk about?
Three conversations, specifically.
Laravel at production scale. We run 20–25 Laravel projects in parallel with a team of 100+ engineers, for clients across the UK, Germany, the US, and the Nordics. Questions about what breaks at that scale, and what does not, are the ones we most enjoy.
AI agents that have to survive an audit. In PP Mobius we run agents over FCA-regulated compliance reviews - built on the Laravel AI SDK, where every check has to show its evidence and confidence to a human reviewer. Getting an agent to produce an opinion was never the hard part. Making the opinion inspectable was. Testing it, too, which is why we built pest-plugin-evals to run evals against Laravel AI SDK agents.
That legacy codebase nobody on your team wants to touch. Rescuing them is a real line of work for us, and a more interesting booth conversation than a service overview.
What we are looking forward to on stage?
Pest 5 ships on day one - Nuno Maduro opens the conference with it, and calls it the biggest release yet. Aaron Francis hosts, and the lineup runs through Freek Van der Herten, Kent C. Dodds, Matt Stauffer, and Chris Fidao.
Then Taylor Otwell closes Day 1 with a full hour billed only as "Laravel Updates." An hour is a lot of updates. That slot is historically where the year's biggest Laravel news lands, and nobody outside Laravel knows what is in it - which is precisely why the room will be full. We have no inside information and we are not going to pretend otherwise. We will just be sitting there like everyone else, waiting to find out.
Beyond client work, we invest in the ecosystem the same way year-round: open-source tools, the Laravel + React Bootcamp now in its eleventh batch, and the first official Laravel Meetup in Georgia, which drew more than a hundred people and is now becoming a recurring series.
See you at SoWa.
