Founded in Australia in 2004, by long time web industry figures John Allsopp and Maxine Sherrin, (and now run by John), Web Directions conferences bring together the web industry’s leading experts from around the world to educate and inspire our attendees. Our major conferences, dive deeply into front end design and development, and you can find the full lineup here https://webdirections.org/events Unlike many conferences, we have a editorial approach – we put together programs based on current trends in the industry, and seek out speakers who are working in those areas to give inspiring, entertaining, but most importantly practical presentations. But as important as the content is, conferences are also about connecting with your peers – making new connections, and strengthening existing ones, sharing know-how and expertise, finding an expert, or new clients. At Web Directions events we pay careful attention to this side of things with social events, and innovative use of social software to help build and strengthen those relationships. Committed to; Bringing together the best possible speakers – knowledgeable, entertaining, inspiring real world experts. Covering the issues, technologies, concepts and techniques web professionals need right now. Keeping clear separation between content and commercial communication – we have a clear no “pay to speak” policy. Providing the best possible value for our attendees – we try to deliver as much as possible, for as little as possible. Helping attendees connect with peers through social events, and our own online networks like tweeps. In short – we put together the events we’d want to attend, and we trust you’ll want to as well.
