Since many software engineers and technical leaders are currently unable to travel in order to attend conferences, network with their peers, and support their development, the team behind InfoQ and QCon have created an alternative virtual event: QCon Plus. This event will run November 4-18, 2020.
The conference is built to accelerate your learning with thoughtfully curated, shorter, focused technical sessions over three weeks featuring 54 speakers, 4 keynotes, 18+ facilitated peer sharing sessions, and 6 focused open space sessions. All presentations will be available on-demand after the event.
