DDD Melbourne - Saturday, 16 March 2024

I saw this mentioned on LinkedIn, after checking it out … I think it deserves a mention.
I was tempted to place it in the ‘Meetings’ section.

  • It seems to have been going for years
  • I may have read attendance was over 1000 people previously (but check my ‘facts’)
  • It only costs $80 for the day
  • 26 talks being given in total, over 4 streams
  • There seem to be good topics for all developers
  • I see DevExpress are a major sponsor
  • Imho, it is very rewarding to mix with more developers … maybe outside our current circles
  • It’s Australian :slight_smile:

Today marks my final day of chairing DDD WA, running DDD Perth.
I’ve loved working with this conference, and seeing it grow from the first year I was involved:
2017: a conference of 330 people

2023: a conference of 1400 people

Fun facts:

:microphone: Every year since 2018, the submission count has stayed around 200 submissions to speak.

:coffee: We have the equivalent of three cafes serving coffee all day and it’s still barely enough.

:earth_asia: People legitimately travel from other countries to come to DDD Perth. :exploding_head:

Together, we’ve built this conference into something truly amazing. I love it, and I’m so pleased to welcome a new Chair, and committee, to bring it further forward, on the cusp of the 10 year anniversary. I truly believe that the next phase of DDD Perth will be all the more amazing from having fresh ideas and dreams.
