In October the digital future takes shape in Montevideo: GX27, Shape Your Future!

20/09/17

The GX27 | GeneXus Meeting, brings together technology professionals, business and decision makers to learn how to take advantage of the era of Digital Transformation and shape their future.
Reading time: 3 minutes

While some talk about digital transformation, others build it day by day; both in theory and in practice, both share experiences and add up. At the international GeneXus event (October 2-4) they all come together, both those who have something to say and those who have already done it and want to share. You can already see 12 of the keynote speakers.

 

We are immersed in the era of software, with Artificial Intelligence playing a leading role, which, hand in hand with automation, is going through everything, generating opportunities and also impacts. This is happening throughout society, but even in the software industry - which has been the main driver of digital transformation - profound and exponential changes are taking place. The event proposed by GeneXus this year, "GX27 Shape Your Future", is to not let ourselves be overwhelmed, to see the opportunity and take control. In other words: to shape our future.

 

Less than 3 weeks before the event, the agenda with about 150 activities is materializing and will soon be available at genexus.com/encuentro, the GX27 website, where those who wish to attend can register for free (last year about 4,000 people from 20 countries attended the meeting).
