“DeveloperWeek 2013 is a one-week incubator for entrepreneurs, developers, and designers to meet, form development teams, attend technology sessions and workshops, demo new apps, and some will even come away from the week with an entirely new startup,” said Geoff Domoracki, CEO of Data 2.0, the producer of DeveloperWeek. “Through our scholarship program, we’ve already pre-approved 20 developer teams with brand new app ideas ranging from mobile health apps and augmented reality technology to stock market analytics and the next big social network idea.”

As developers have become the core members of every new tech company, DeveloperWeek aims to educate attendees on how to become developers, learn new technologies, and build applications. Unlike other technology events, DeveloperWeek combines a 3-day hackathon with over 350 registered attendees, a 3-day conference with over 200 speakers and 80 technology workshops and panel talks, a 1-day Prototype Day for developers to demo their new apps, and 8 additional networking events during the week-long festivities.

The DeveloperWeek Conference & Festival 2013 includes a hiring mixer, evening receptions, and several city-wide events where participants can network with the newest generation of tech enthusiasts. DeveloperWeek is sponsored in part by Dun & Bradstreet and Microsoft. Tickets are on sale online through February 5.
