GraphConnect will run concurrently with the QCon SF tutorial days (Nov 5-6). Conference ‘package’ discounts are available for QConSF and GraphConnect attendees.
QCon SF will host more than 100 speakers, 5 concurrent tracks, and many breaks, parties, and opportunities for networking. Last year’s event brought together over 750 practitioners – full coverage from last year's event can be found here.
Registration is $1395 (a $800 savings) for the 3 day event until July 2nd, and increases afterwards every month. QCon is co-produced by InfoQ.com and Trifork, producer of the Danish GOTO conference.
