Given the state of UK airport security, about the only reason I would go to the UK would be for a Skills Matter (un)conference, eXchange, or tutorial! And that is from having only enjoyed them as recorded presentations, slides and code. Actual attendance must bring a lot of repeat customers.
On the schedule for this Fall:
Skills Matter Partner Conferences
Skills Matter has partnered with Silicon Valley Comes to the UK, WIP, Novoda, FuseSource and David Pollak, to provide you with the following fantastic (un)Conferences & Hackathon’s:
- Silicon Valley Comes to the UK Appathon on Government Data, October 8-9th

- Scala Lift-Off on Scala and Lift, October 13-14th
Skills Matter eXchanges
We’ll also be running some pretty cool one- and two-day long Skills Matter eXchanges, which are conferences featuring 45 minute long expert talks and lots of breaks to discuss what you have learned. Expect in-depth, hands-on talks led by real experts who are there to be quizzed, questioned and interrogated until you know as much as they do, or thereabouts! In the paragraphs below, you’ll be able to find out about the following eXchanges we have planned for the coming months:
- NoSQL eXchange on November 2nd
- Agile Testing & BDD eXchange on November 18th
- Clojure eXchange on December 1st
