We are happy to share with you all of the details of our upcoming Summer Conference event. 17.06-19.06 is divided into two parts – the first evening (Friday) is an official bigger-scale event where we will discuss the latest Estonian releases and future plans, then on 18.06 (Saturday) first half of the day will be mainly discussions onthe upcoming events and cooperation possibilities inside of the community. The second half of the day has no schedule, we will talk/play and have fun. On Sunday we go back to our cities/countries.
Because this event is only partially funded, we can’t make it totally free, but we made it very affordable for all participants. Thank you for your cooperation!
