ITDevCon 2017 - The Delphi European Conference

ITDevCon 2017 is coming!

As every year (but 2015), I’m building the agenda for next ITDevCon that will be held next October 11th, 12th in Rome (Italy), in the same location of the ITDevCon 2016 and ITDevCon 2017 spring edition: the bit Time group headquarter in Rome!

This will be the 8th conference edition and will be organized, as usual, by bit Time Professionals, part of the bit Time Group.

CALL4PAPERS

The call for papers are officially open right now, so if you want to propose some speeches, I’ll be glad to see them.

Send your Call4Paper to d.teti@bittime.it.

I already received some C4P, I’ll reply as soon as all the tech comitee members will accept (or reject) the proposals.

As usual, for the Call4Paper I need:

• Title (for every talk)
• Abstract (for every talk)
• Difficulty level (for every talk)
  • Difficulty level is a scale from 1 to 3 with the following mean: introduction, intermediate, advanced
• Speaker’s photo (at least 500x500px)
• Speaker’s profile

I’m looking forward to your proposal. The call4papers ends at Sep 24th, 2017 but if you have *VERY* interesting topic to propose, propose it… I’ll try to arrange the schedule and fit it in the agenda.

Proposals will be evaluated and the speakers will be contacted ASAP.
