Craft Conference

[Ben Ramsey]

I thought I'd let everyone know about Craft Conference. To be transparent, the organizers of the conference contacted me to ask if I would help them promote it, and after looking at the speaker line-up and topics, I agreed to post about it.

The speaker line-up looks awesome, and the topic of the conference is something that personally interests me. Unfortunately, it's in Budapest in April, so it may be a stretch to get there (I won't be able to attend, myself), but they are giving members of our user group a $50-off coupon to the conference.

What follows is their boiler-plate conference description, with coupon link. If you are able to make it, let us know how it goes.

----------

CRAFT is a software craftsmanship conference in April 23-25 at Budapest (http://craft-conf.com/2014), it is about which tools, methods, practices should be part of the toolbox of a modern developer and company, and it is a compass on new technologies, trends. You can learn from the best speakers and practitioners in our community like Bruce Eckel, Chad Fowler, Dan North, Eric Evans, Douglas Crockford, Gojko Adzic, Greg Young, John Hughes, John Willis, Jonas Bonér, Jutta Eckstein, Michael Feathers, Michael Nygard, Mitchell Hashimoto, Nat Pryce, Steve Freeman, Theo Schlossnagle.

Our main goal was to create an event where any type of developer, team leader, decision maker can learn a lot, and we believe we were able to convince a really unique speaker lineup to achieve this goal: http://craft-conf.com/2014/#speakers. We are non-profit so our ticket prices are 2-3 times cheaper than other conferences with similar speaker line-up, it was very important for us to keep the conference affordable for as wide audience as possible (we support for example many universities with free live stream). If you are still hesitating to get your ticket, read why we believe you should join: http://craft-conf.com/2014/about.html
