The Mid Atlantic Developer Expo will be kicking off its first ever event on June 30th. Will you be there?
Why the Mid Atlantic?
There are unique conferences all over the USA - think CodeMash, CodeStock, DevLINK, IndyTechFest – so why did the organisers decide to set up camp for this event in Hampton, VA?
The Mid Atlantic Developer Expo was born out of discussions among the community, and a desire to combine some of the efforts and energy that drives the great user groups and code camps in the area into an event that would bring together diverse groups of developers and technologists, and provide a great environment for learning and inspiration.

With a 10-strong team behind the scenes making sure everything is in place, this event has all the hallmarks of a great event. The event is being supported by a number of sponsors, including DevExpress, and with the great work that the organisational committee for this event have done means that the ticket price of just $149.00 represents great value for money – less than $75 per day of content!
Come and find DevExpress
Our newest recruit, Rachel Reese, will be heading out to Hampton, VA to mingle and meet attendees. She’s the face of our Rich Edit and Scheduling controls, so if you have any questions or comments that you’d like to sit down and discuss with her, she’ll be hanging around the DevExpress sponsor table during the day. If you want to contact her beforehand, you can find her on Twitter or you can drop her an email (rachelr@devexpress.com).
If you can’t find her on the DevExpress booth, you might want to check the MADKidz area

It’s not too late to register
There are still places available for this event. And if you are interested in HTML5, there is a full day workshop on the Thursday sponsored and run by Microsoft, to help you to reach optimal velocity!
Register for your spot here.
As I’ve said before, $149.00 is a steal for a conference with this level of content. If you are in the region and could benefit from this event, check with your boss and see if there is room in your training budget or team “pot” for you to take advantage of. The costs are significantly less than the major high dollar events, so see what your managers can do for you. You never know unless you ask!
If you are travelling to this event, do drop by the DevExpress table and say hello to Rachel. She might even give you some swag!
Safe travels!
