MARGO at CppCon: At the heart of the world's largest C++ gathering

In two weeks, C++ experts from around the world will gather for the 2026 edition of CppCon. Louise Kraffe, C++ Software Engineer in MARGO’s Software Engineering practice, will represent our teams during this new Learning Expedition.

MARGO at CppCon: the benchmark event for C++

Organized every year in the United States, CppCon is the premier international conference dedicated to the C++ language. For a week, over a thousand developers, software architects, and tool designers gather to shape the future of the language.

Embedded systems, high-frequency trading, robotics, or AI infrastructure: CppCon covers all domains where raw performance and system architecture are critical.

MARGO’s expertise on the international stage

Maintaining a level of technical excellence requires being at the heart of spaces where the future of tech is decided. At MARGO, we give our talent the means to embody this vanguard by positioning them at the most selective international conferences. Our Learning Expeditions reflect this commitment: anticipating tomorrow’s standards, measuring up against the world’s best engineers, and reinvesting this value into our projects.

Louise Kraffe

C++ Software Engineer, MARGO Software Engineering Practice

From embedded systems to market access systems, her career path is guided by a common thread: a passion for complex technical challenges. Enthusiastic about algorithms and data structures, she developed an early affinity for C++ and system-level topics. During three years of work-study experience, she delved into the inner workings of MSL, a proprietary language widely used in the financial industry, discovering compilation mechanisms—a field that quickly became a true passion. Today at MARGO, she applies her C++ expertise at BNP Paribas CIB. Combining performance demands, technical complexity, and the financial environment, she thrives on topics that fully align with her curiosity and drive to deepen her understanding of systems.

It is within this dynamic that Louise will deliver a Lightning Talk. This short, impactful format will be an opportunity for her to share field feedback and exchange directly with her peers.

Coming soon: the full feedback (REX) on this page

Between keynote speeches by experts, technical sessions, and informal exchanges, the immersion promises to be intense.

Louise will publish her full feedback (REX) here. On the agenda:

  • Key technical trends to remember for modern C++,
  • Her favorite highlights among the talks,
  • A behind-the-scenes look at her presentation.
