1st PHP Developer’s Conference

PHP User Group Philippines, Inc. (PHPUGPH) will be holding its first PHP Developer’s Conference on December 1, 2007 from 9am - 6pm. The said event will be attended by professional LAMP developers, freelancers and companies which are very notable in the field of IT. The event’s main goal is to spread the news of using OSS(Open Source Software) technologies to a wider audience like schools, universities and companies. Last April was a similar even that the group conducted which I was not able to attend, but definitely I will be here! Details of the event’s venue will be posted soon.
Why attend?
If you are a student taking IT related courses, this is good exposure for you. You will get the chance to see the real IT world in the Philippines and the real guys behind the scene of the sites you are surfing, either for fun, entertainment or education purposes. Well I also believe that learning is not always achieved inside the 4 corners of the classroom.
If you are a PHP programmer or even non PHP programmer whether professional, mid-level or novice one, this event is definitely for you. This is a ones in a lifetime experience to attend the 1st ever event, this is history in the making in the Philippine IT History. It always a good feeling to be the first isn’t it? Your grand children will read this in their history books and you will be proud to say to them, I was there! You will learn so much from the topic that are lined up. You can find the complete list in AJ blog site.
If you are a company or an entrepreneur, this event will directly benefit you, since most of the speakers are also entrepreneurs, and IT company CEOs which I’m definitely sure will give some tips how to run an IT related business. If I’m not mistaken the Tipidpc guys will be there to share how the site came to be. Ideas will be be scattering all over the venue and you’ll never know, the solution you are looking in your company will be revealed here.
Sponsorship?
Basically I’m not the person in-charge of the sponsorship thing, but I can be your mediator and tell the phpug top guys about your intentions.
Well what are you waiting for, start marking those calendars as if this is a Christmas countdown. I’m pretty excited about this event and I hope to see you all there!
