Binary Studio At Wordlwide IT Conference In Donetsk

The Worldwide IT Conference 2012, which was announced earlier, took place last Saturday. Over 150 people gathered within the walls of Donetsk National Technical University in order to know more about latest trends of the IT market and get the opportunity to talk to each other.

The main goal of this meeting was to show students different ways to grow in IT, keep them updated about the latest market trends as well as provide young IT professionals with the opportunity to communicate with their prospective employers. Binary Studio is always interested in establishing contacts with young and ambitious software professionals, that’s why we took part in the meeting organization. Head of the .NET Department – Oleg and Head of the HR Department - Alexandra were speakers at the conference.

In our corporate presentation we aimed at explaining why it is important for business to interact with educational system and vice versa. The reasons are pretty obvious – we are doing the same thing – increase pool of IT professionals. However business has advantage of feeling unstable market trends much faster. Therefore we consider it logical to help educational institutions update curriculum so that the graduates obtain the outmost up-to-date set of skills. We aim at enriching pool of qualified resources not exhausting. Such events are very important for industry growth as the demand for skilled IT staff goes rampant today.
