Upcoming Speaking Engagements

Next month is gonna be kind of crazy, or as I like to call it – “Crazy October!”. As much as I like public speaking appearances, this upcoming October is gonna be packed with appearances in three major international conferences.

TechBash 2017

First up is TechBash taking place on October 4th-6th at the Pocono Manor Kalahari Resort in Pennsylvania, USA. At TechBash I will be speaking in two sessions:

1. Bot-tender: A chat bot walks into a bar – In this session you’ll get to know the Microsoft Bot Framework and the Azure Bot Service, as we use them to build a real live bot bartender on stage and tackle all of the development issues one by one.
2. Building an IoT Massive Multiplayer Game in 60 Minutes – DO NOT MISS THIS SESSION! In this one hour session we’ll see just how we can utilize the Azure IoT platform to build live on stage an IoT system which is actually a massive multiplayer game complete with sensors, devices, analytics and commands. Oh, and the crowd will be a part of it too…

The conference will also feature additional great speakers, among them my CodeValue colleague Alon Fliess.

.Net Developer Days 2017

Up next is .Net Developer Days taking place on October 18th-20th at Expo XXI in Warsaw, Poland. At .NET Developer Days I will be speaking in two sessions:

1. Bot-Tender: A .NET Chatbot Walks into a Bar – In this session you’ll get to know the Microsoft Bot Framework and the Azure Bot Service, as we use them to build a real live .NET bot bartender on stage and tackle all of the development issues one by one.
2. Building a Complete IoT Massive Multiplayer Game with C# – AGAIN, DO NOT MISS THIS SESSION! In this session we’ll see just how we can utilize the Azure IoT platform to build live on stage an IoT system which is actually a massive multiplayer game complete with C# devices, C# commands and C# analytics, with the crowd being a part of the game as well.

This conference will also feature great speakers, among them my CodeValue colleagues Alon Fliess and Dror Helper.

IT/Dev Connections 2017

Last but not least is IT/Dev Connections taking place on October 23rd-26th at The Hilton Union Square in San-Francisco, USA. At IT/Dev Connections I will be speaking in three sessions:

1. Bot-tender: A chat bot walks into a bar – In this session you’ll get to know the Microsoft Bot Framework and the Azure Bot Service, as we use them to build a real live bot bartender on stage and tackle all of the development issues one by one.
2. Why Don’t you Understand me? Build Intelligence into your Apps – In this session we will take a public image API, and enhance it with intelligence using Azure Cognitive Services. We’ll see how we can add vision, language and speech into our applications, making them smarter than ever before.
3. This Windows Developer Gets a Container! That Windows Developer Gets a Container!! Everybody Gets a Container!!! – In this one hour session I’ll show you what are Windows Containers and how you can use them to easily package and deploy your Windows applications, services, IIS apps and Windows dependencies such as SQL Server to a Windows cluster using standard and familiar Docker tools.

This is a major conference with awesome speakers, among them my CodeValue colleague Dror Helper.

Not enough?

Well, that’s definitely enough for me! If you have a chance, I highly encourage you to visit one of these conferences. It will be a blast! And if you can’t join me there, then you can follow this blog to get links to all presentations, samples and videos once they are published.

In addition, please feel free to contact me in case you’d like me to present at your Meetup or event. See you soon!
