GeeCON is a conference that will focus on Java and Java Virtual Machine based technologies, with special attention to dynamic languages like Groovy and Ruby. GeeCON is for everyone! Interested in new things from the world of Java and related universes – even better! The conference is aimed at software developers and architects, IT experts, students and personalities from the world of science.
It’s expected that in 2010, GeeCON might attract over 500 attendees from Germany, Czech, Poland and other countries. GeeCON is all about community, it’s organised for the community and by the community. First edition proved that the conference is more than just a great opportunity to meet for Eastern European developers.
The event is organised by representatives of Polish Java community (including Polish Java User Group and Poznan Java User Group). Some of the announced speakers: Ed Burns, Holly Cummins, Matthias Wessendorf, Peter Lubbers.
Brussels JUG is an official partner of the GeeCON and by this, we benefit from special conditions. We also have a Free Ticket to give away.
Please note that the event is near and the registration is closing in a few days. So if you are interested to attend the conference, please let us know as soon as possible. Possibly, we could organise a group trip if more people are willing to attend.
