PHP tours Europe in fall

Posted by on June 8, 2010

ElePHPant at the Barcelona conferenceIf you wanted to take PHP’s pulse, take its temperature and measure the pressure in its veins one great place to look would be the calendar of PHP-related events around the world.  And if you did that, it would seem that PHP is entering its spring!  At street level user groups are bustling with activity and keeping brewers in good business, beginners get more and better information to chew on and thus learn faster and are better prepared, and conferences congregate larger crowds to hear from the finest and brightest minds in the industry on the latest evolution of PHP development and its neighbor technologies.  And not only that, but the “fauna” that populates these events is so rich and varied that the debates that spark from them contribute to keep the wheel spinning.  Is it any wonder that they are so popular?

And that is why this fall is so special!  The 10th anniversary of the International PHP Conference will turn Germany’s Mainz into the world’s PHP capital and the fun then moves onto the sunny shores of Barcelona where palm trees and sun add a very interesting spice.  Calling all speakers!  Calls for papers open!

The International PHP Conference

The International PHP Conference has recently opened its call for papers for its 10th anniversary edition, and in its announcement it makes it very clear that it’s going to be one hell of a show.  Ten years is a long time and if the other nine conferences have been superb events, this one is going to be a real cracker.  In fact, they haven’t even waited for the summer edition to end before announcing their fall event!  Scheduled for the 11th to the 13th of October it will draw together the finest and most admired, as well as the most passionate and eager.  Feel like hitting the stage?  Now’s your chance to submit and compete for a place in an amazing three-day schedule!

The PHPBarcelona Conference

The PHPBarcelona Conference is an event run by the PHPBarcelona user group, and it shows in all the little details.  It started off as a small half-day event and, reaching its fourth edition, there is no doubt regarding its quality and potential and it has quickly become a key event in the calendar.  It’s not just about the PHP rock stars, it’s not only about the amount of talent present…  It’s about the enormous quality of its content and all the fun that speakers and attendees alike share during both days.  Looking to enjoy the last traces of summer?  Then head to Barcelona on the 22nd to the 23rd of October. Their call for papers is also open!

So, if you have something to say and only need a stage to say it on, head for Europe this fall and get your message in the streets!
