The State of .NET with Jim Duffy!

Where:   ONSITE ONLY - Microsoft Offices 3025 Carrington Mill Blvd Suite 200, Morrisville, NC 27560
When:    9:00AM - 12:00PM

A free, unbiased look at the current and future .NET software development landscape.

The industry is in a state of flux. What does that mean for your software projects today and tomorrow? Will your skills be outdated? Will your current investment become obsolete? What should you focus on right now? And what will become important a year or two down the road? What technologies do you need to learn?

This free State of .NET event attempts to answer these questions and more by taking an unbiased look at current and future developments with .NET and other relevant technologies.

Come alone, bring a developer friend, persuade your boss to come or cram your development team in the car and come join Jim Duffy for a morning of free information. Stick around for a free lunch and share your thoughts about .NET with Jim and your peers. CODE Magazine & Consulting is in a unique position to share information based on real world experience in projects that are either our own or one of the many projects we get to see in our role as mentors, trainers and consultants, as well as feedback we receive from CODE Magazine readers. This is NOT marketing hype! We will tell you which technologies you should invest time and money in, and which ones to avoid.

This event is completely free of charge and is designed for developers as well as IT decision makers. Specific prior knowledge is not required. Attendees of this event will come away with a clear understanding of which technologies to use for various technical challenges.

Topics Include:

• What’s new and useful in the world of .NET? Including new announcements and news from Microsoft Build!
• What’s .NET’s role (and Microsoft’s role) in a modern world of development? The new approach and more!
