- Notes
- First edition; free (registration via Eventbrite, pgextday2025mtl.eventbrite.ca), one track, held the day before PGConf.dev 2025 at the same venue. Speakers: all talks from the Sessionize schedule. Affiliations from the Sessionize speaker profiles (tagline/bio as of the event); Andrey Borodin ('Postgres hacker') and Florents Tselai ('Data Strategist & Engineer') give no company. Mehmet Yilmaz's Citus talk is listed on Sessionize without a time slot ('not announced yet'), while a third-party write-up (vonng.com) shows it at 4:00 pm, so whether it was delivered is unconfirmed. The whole day was streamed/recorded; the pgext.day home page embeds the recording https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cucQOOAahNY (per-talk videos not linked). Sponsor amount: the site offered a single US$2,000 sponsorship level.
