Announcement posted by Teknowledge software 18 Oct 2016
Teknowledge Software will be present at this year’s Nordic APIs Platform Summit, scheduled to be held at Stockholm from the 24th to the 26th of October. The CEO of the mobile app company, Mr. Hussain Fakhruddin, confirmed this in a recent press meet.
Mr. Fakhruddin is going to be one of the many experts from the field of API development who will be present as delegates at the event. He will also be conducting a special session on ‘API Strategy Optimization’ on the final day of the conference (October 26, 2:45pm). Incidentally, Teksmobile Sverige - the Swedish chapter of Teknowledge Software - is one of the co-sponsors of Platform Summit 2016.
The event will kickstart on 24 October (Monday), with a half-day workshop (following the pre-event party). The first session will provide attendees with a brief introduction to APIs, and it will be helmed by Victoria Wagman. Sessions on OAuth and OpenID Connect, and ASP.NET-powered API development for the cloud are also scheduled for later on the same day. The venue of the Nordic APIs Platform Summit 2016 is Globen - the largest hemispherical building in the globe. Registrations will start from 12:00.
The conference starts from Day 2 of the three-day event from 8:30am. After a 15-minute introduction, there will be three consecutive sessions - leading up to the half-hour coffee break from 10:00. It will be followed by sessions till 11:40am, when the delegates will be dispersing for lunch. The conference will resume at 12:40pm and will stretch till 4:30pm (with two coffee breaks in between, at 1:50pm and 3:10pm respectively). The day’s proceedings will be rounded off with a 5-minute window for closing statements. The next day will follow the same schedule format (with the sessions starting at 9:10am).
The range of API-related topics that will be deliberated at this year’s Nordic APIs Platform Summit will be well and truly extensive, reiterated a visibly excited Mr. Fakhruddin. Apart from API strategies (on which Mr. Fakhruddin will be speaking himself), there will be sessions on API practices, pertinent digital security issues, API lifecycle, Internet of Things (IoT), API versioning, RESTful API development and handling, testing and microservices, designing of automotive grade APIs, and various other issues. To ensure that delegates get the maximum possible value from the event, the sessions have been segregated under 2 tracks - the Technical Track and the Business Track. There will be also be sessions under ‘Demos and Lightning Talks’. Mr. Fakhruddin’s session on 26 October will fall under that.
Broadly speaking, this year’s Nordic APIs Platform Summit has been designed to familiarize attendees with two key solutions. The first is accelerated development of custom APIs that score high on the longevity count. The other revolves around the deployment of API strategies to generate high returns. Mr. Fakhruddin and Ms. Maria Bergstrom (the head of Teksmobile Sverige) both sounded confident about learning a lot of new things related to APIs at the event, and in turn, sharing their own knowledge about interfaces.
The networking opportunities will also be excellent at the Platform Summit 2016. On October 25 (the second day of the overall event and the first day of the conference), a two-hour window (5:00pm to 7:00pm) has been set aside for ‘Drinks and Networking’ - right after the conference sessions get over. Business leaders and entrepreneurs at the show will get ample scope to connect with peers, have effective two-way communication, and expand their corporate networks.
Registrations for this much-anticipated API workshop-and-conference are on in full swing. Tickets for the half-day workshop have been priced at 25 Euros (VAT 6.25 Euros). As part of the promotional drive for the week leading up to the event, the organizers have launched two exciting offers for willing attendees. The latter can purchase one ticket and get another at a 50% discount (total cost: 324 Euros; VAT extra), or buy 2 tickets and get the third absolutely free (total cost: 288 Euros; VAT extra).
