Welcome! Devoxx UK is the latest child of Devoxx, the conference for developers run by those who are leaders in their industry, in this case by the Devoxx family and the London Java Community (LJC). The conference consists of a packed schedule of presentations by international and UK speakers; Get your hands dirty with our Hands On Labs where attendees can get practical experience guided by experts in the field; and Birds Of A Feather sessions (BOFs) which are open-table discussions. Naturally being a developers' conference, there will also be plenty of space to get together and hack in the Hacker Garden!
Why Devoxx?
(aka Why your boss should send you)
Devoxx UK offers all of the high quality speakers, education, learning and networking benefits of a traditional commercial conference, but with a key difference. The content was picked specifically to help the busy day to day developer learn several real and tangible concepts/technologies that they can take back to their day jobs.
