360iDev iPhone conference to return in April

Dev community event back for second run

360iDev iPhone conference to return in April
Back after its successful inaugural conference in Denver last year, 360 Conferences has confirmed that 360iDev 2010 will kick off its second stab at uniting the iPhone development studios the world over next month.

Taking place from April 11th to 14th in San Jose, California, 360iDev's backers say this year's conference will again "bring together the best and brightest of the iPhone development community".

"We saw a 30 percent increase in attendance at our September show in Denver over the first conference in San Jose, and the feedback from attendees was spectacular," said John Wilker, co-founder of 360 Conferences.

 

Kicking ass in San Jose

"Our motto may be 'organising events that don't suck', but if 360iDev in April is as phenomenal as we expect it to be, we might have to change that to 'organising events that kick ass.'"

Speakers confirmed for the conference include geoDefense creator David Whatley, lead developer at Prop Group Rob Strougo, technology consultant Jay Freeman (aka Saurik), and Free Time Studios founder Nathan Eror, amongst others.

"Our conferences aren’t marketing events, or sales events," 360 Conferences says of 360iDev.

"They exist solely to bring the community together and have fun, and learn some awesome shit while we're at it. We screen each submission/speaker to make sure the content is top notch."
