OT99 - Europe's best skills transfer event
|
|
This is the seventh OT conference: the event has
established an enviable reputation for exploring new
technologies and breaking new ground in the practice
of software architecture, design, and development.
At the same time, the conference maintains a practical
and experience-based approach to its subject matter.
Careful planning also ensures that OT retains the
intimacy and cohesion for which it is famous.
|
...where the experts learn
|
|
'The OT conference is where experts gather to learn'
says David Harvey, this year's conference chair.
'It is set up specifically to circulate know-how,
but without the sales bias you get at trade shows,
and without the theoretical flavour of some conferences.
All the sessions are interactive - we believe you learn
best by doing.'
The conference has a tradition of active participation.
You'll find that the conference sessions bring people
together to work and learn - in most cases, sessions
are highly interactive, involving participants and
session leaders on an equal footing.
