Description:
|
|
|
- It is a technical conference with currently the broadest topics in the United States, maybe the world. Covering everything enterprise architecture, software/web development, databases, project management, data security and this year for the first time - graphic/web design.
- It's primary focus is to provide training/teaching sessions that are immediately benefical to the broadest range of IT professionals in their day-to-day jobs. We accomplish this with over 60 national/international speakers and 90 to 120 75 minute sessions.
- A charitable non-profit event organized by Tulsa area volunteers. For the past two years, we have donated a LOT of pizza to the John 3:16 Mission. This year for the first time, we will be charging each day of the event - TWO CANS or TWO BUCKS. All canned food will be donated to the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma and all proceeds will be donated to the Family & Children's Services. We prefer to over order than under order for lunch, so we will continue the tradition of donating the extras to the John 3:16 Mission.
- In 2006, it started as a one day event on Saturday, October 14th, 2006, attracting over 360+ attendees.
- In 2007, we listened to everyone's feedback and had phenominal success with over 660+ attendees on Friday, October 19th, 2007, and over 460+ on Saturday, October 20th, 2007.
- Since our first event, many other communities have been following our example by hosting their own TechFest events: VancouverTechFest, HoustonTechFest, DallasTechFest, AlbertaTechFest and IndyTechFest. Bookmark TechFests.com to keep updated about all these various events.
