#GX24 Recipes for Successful Development It’s all set to receive approximately 4K participants from the IT industry coming from over 27 countries!

Our annual event, considered one of the most important of its kind in Latin America in what concerns technology and innovation, will take place at the Radisson Hotel Montevideo (Uruguay), from September 29th to October 1st. The event will cover all aspects relative to the Cloud Computing eco-system for business, as well as corporate strategies to take the leap into mobile technology, Big Data, the Internet of things, and technological innovation, among other topics. Amazon, IBM, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, RedHat and SAP are among the corporations that will be offering conferences at the event.

Year after year, technology is increasingly becoming a vital part of every new aspect of our daily life. Technology is a crosscutting factor of all our activities, from the way in which we get our information, or plan our vacations, or even make our grocery shopping, to our search for jobs, or the way in which we work or pursue our own enterprises.
Based on this, the Meeting’s new edition has been defined on the idea of developing “Recipes for successful development”, including developments that have proven to be successful in different technological contexts, such as governmental innovation, transportation, health care issues, education, management, productivity, marketing, and infrastructure. The world’s current trends in relation to software and society will also be on the agenda, as well as many other ingredients that are basic for success, like design and usability.
 
This event will bring together experts from over 27 countries -including Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Uruguay, China, Japan and the U.S.A.- who will be explaining the main movements of the technology industry today, and how to achieve the technological development that will best respond to every need in the market, using GeneXus.
