At the London C++ meetup last month, I participated on a panel where each panelist gave a short introductory presentation. My 7-minute intro (aka “lightning talk”) just got posted — you can view it here. The one-sentence blurb: “C++ is accelerating, and C++26 is built for what developers need now.”
Also check out the longer writeup of takeaways here on the Citadel Securities site: “Why C++ Is Growing and What C++26 Means for Production Systems.”
