Due to COVID-19, sanitary restrictions and limit on number of people at gatherings, tech conferences did not happen in Mauritius in the past two years. That's about to change.
Yeeeeeees! The Developers Conference of Mauritius is finally happening. The dates have been announced.
Save the dates! We are happy to announce that the Developers conference is happening on the 22nd, 23rd and 24th of November of 2022 at the Caudan Arts Centre.

DevCon, as many call it, will be held at the Caudan Arts Centre, on 22, 23 and 24 November 2022. A lot of geeks, nerds, and other awesome human beings of the island have been patiently waiting for this conference for the past two years. Indeed, the last physical conference that we attended was in 2019 at the Voilà Hotel. Many of us had a great time, a blast even.
DevCon is a community-driven three-days tech event involving developers, sysadmins, engineers, project managers, and other professionals of the ICT industry who meet and greet, present topics of interest, have beer/coffee/cold drinks together in the evenings.
The conference is made possible by the support of the tech community on the island and the financial backing of the generous sponsors.
The conference is free of charge to attend but registration is compulsory.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we could not organise a physical conference in 2020 and 2021. In September 2020, we wid have a virtual DevCon but the feeling and enthusiasm isn't the same as meeting people in real life.
You may peek in the sessions agenda of DevCon 2019 to get an idea on the types topics that are presented.
The agenda for DevCon 2022 is still being finalised. It should be available in a few weeks time, but for time save the dates in your calendar — 22, 23 & 24 November 2022. See you at the Caudan Arts Centre. 🤓
