Newsletter: Upcoming Events - MCB InovApp, DevConMU and GAB

Hi craftsmen!

Starting this year, we are going to send out a few newsletter throughout the year. This is the second, and we are highly interested in your feedback about the following aspects:

• Frequency: How often shall we inform you about something?
• Content: Is there any material that we should totally avoid or provide more details?
• Events from other user groups: Would that be relevant?

This newsletter has emphasis on the upcoming events that we're going to run or participate in as a partner. Please check your calendars and register yourself to enjoy the experience and fun in the community!

Without further ado, kindly see below.

Cheers, JoKi

Developers Conference 2019

The most important conference in tech in Mauritius. This year marks the 5th edition of the Developers Conference.

Since 2015 we are in compliance with our goals. The conference is a free of charge, community-driven, three-days IT tech event in Mauritius. It’s an event full of business opportunities for supporters and professional networking among peers. Attendees can learn about latest software development technologies, methodologies, cloud services and infrastructure.

The Developers Conference is organised in partnership with other IT user
