GOTO Oslo 2020

Conference + Masterclasses March 3 - 5
Venue: MS Crown Seaways

Theme

Good Old Plain Programming

Highlights

We have important news to announce regarding GOTO Oslo: we are reformatting the physical conference and turning GOTO Oslo into a virtual event.

We’re inviting attendees to join us in an experiment: a virtual GOTO Oslo through YouTube. We will release speaker talks according to our schedule to a YouTube playlist that we’ll share with attendees at the time of the event.

The difficult decision to reformat the event is taken in light of the growing international concerns regarding coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, and due to an increasing number of our participants and speakers experiencing travel restrictions. This way we can ensure everyone has the possibility to participate in some form.

The DFDS cruise will still travel from Copenhagen to Oslo and back, and any attendees and speakers who would like to join may do so. You will be able to follow the virtual conference from the ship.

If you decide to follow the virtual conference or if you have any questions, please let us know as soon as possible by email.
