GeneXus LIVE Highlights:

  • GeneXus 18 was introduced.
  • It was announced that GX30 will take place in 2023.
  • The reasons why GeneXus chose Globant and vice versa were discussed, with the participation of Guibert Englebienne, Director of Globant X and Co-founder of Globant.
At the beginning of the event that attracted thousands of online viewers from all over the world, Nicolás Jodal, GeneXus CEO, talked about the decision of integrating GeneXus into Globant’s Low-Code portfolio: “The first and most important business decision of our lives—together with Breogán Gonda—was to create the company (GeneXus). The second most important decision was how to continue it in the future, and we chose Globant, to grow our technology a lot more.”

In turn, Guibert Englebienne, Globant Co-founder and Globant X Director, talked about Globant’s mission and how it could be empowered with GeneXus: “We at Globant X have the tools that make the digital transformation of our clients easier. That is why adding GeneXus to our portfolio allows us to do things with much less effort; it allows us to ensure that our clients, when they develop an application, generate code that will stay young for many years to come.”

Mr. Englebienne was also enthusiastic about the possibilities offered by Mini Programs or Super Apps: “It's as if there were a Netflix of apps, with the ability to stream an app directly to the device without installing it.”
