FinOps X Conference 2025: A Must-Attend Event for Cloud Cost Pros

If you work in cloud cost optimization, there’s one event you don’t want to miss: FinOps X 2025. Hosted by the FinOps Foundation, this annual conference is the epicenter of everything happening in the world of cloud financial operations. 

Taking place June 2-5 in sunny San Diego, the conference offers more than just sessions and speakers—it’s a full-blown community experience for anyone serious about FinOps.

This year, as always, the FinOps X 2025 location is Marriott Marquis San Diego Marina, with a spectacular view of San Diego city's waterfront.

What makes FinOps X unique is its focus and size. Unlike the mega tech conferences that attract tens of thousands, FinOps X is a highly curated gathering of just over 2,000 professionals. This creates a space for deeper conversations, richer learning experiences, and genuine networking. 

Whether you’re an engineer, product manager, or FinOps lead, the intimacy of this conference means you’ll actually get face time with experts and peers who are solving the same challenges you face.

The community itself is growing fast. There are already over 1,700 FinOps-designated professionals in the U.S. and 8,800 globally. And FinOps X is the annual moment when this still-nascent movement comes together to share knowledge, push the practice forward, and have a little fun while doing it. It’s the kind of event where hallway conversations can be as valuable as formal sessions.

Expect to hear from some of the top minds in the space, including Ema Patki from Align Tech, James Greenfield from AWS, and Will Forrester from Salesforce. You’ll dive into cutting-edge topics like AI in FinOps, building FinOps-aware products, and driving value through cost optimization. Whether you're just starting out or working on enterprise-level cloud strategy, there’s something for everyone.
