BlackBerry DevCon Americas 2011

We recently stated participating in RIM’s BlackBerry Runtime for Android Apps sponsorship – RIM is thrilled to be supporting Ottawa Android Developer Group!

They also wanted to let you know about an upcoming event in the developer community that we are all excited about – the annual BlackBerry DevCon Americas for 2011!

The conference is a showcase for the latest and greatest innovations and development breakthroughs on the BlackBerry platform, and will be held from Oct. 18-20 in San Francisco at the Marriott Marquis Hotel. For more details, visit: www.blackberrydevcon.com

If there is interest in attending, RIM actually wants to further support our Meetup Group by giving away one individual FREE DevCon 2011 pass (a $849 value)!

If you are interested in attending, please send and e-mail to the organizers to be entered into the draw for the free pass (limit 1 entry per person). All presenters at the next meeting get 3 extra draw entries added to the box (max 3 presenters @ next meeting). As usual, submit your presentation proposals to the organizers via email or the mailing list. We shall randomly choose someone from all the submissions at the next meeting.
