There were also ITIXO Chill-out zone, Yoga Time sessions during coffee breaks and Quiet room.

The attendees could also network and win prizes at the showcases of conference partners: Vistaprint, PostSharp and Kentico. They could also chat with the developers of DotVVM, an open source framework developed by RIGANTI.

Media Partners

Richard Campbell and Carl Franklin were the main stars of Update Conference Prague 2018. During the conference days, they recorded several episodes of their famous .NET Rocks! podcast. We were also glad that Martin Šimeček and Vojtěch Mádr, the authors of czech .NET.CZ podcast, were also at the conference.

One of our greatest priorities is to compose a diverse lineup of speakers representing different backgrounds and opinions. We partnered with Czechitas, a non-profit organization that helps young girls to succeed in IT. Together with Julie Lerman and Rabeb Othmani, two influential and successful speakers, we recorded a short interview about their career in IT.
