About this Event
A day of spontaneous sharing and learning for software builders


An annual day of open space discussions with old friends and new. We bring together 200-300 developers, data scientists, machine learning engineers, product managers, UI/UX designers, and founders for 40 energetic and wide ranging discussion sessions.

Participants pitch and lead the sessions. Everyone engages.

What's an "un"-conference?

Also called an "open space", an un-conference is a participant driven conference. Attendees propose conference topics and offer to lead and facilitate these talks, discussions, panels, coding dojos, and more. It's an experience like no other.

What exactly do we mean by Polyglot?

Any language, any tech stack, or any combination.
