About the ALM Summit
Build Quality Applications that Meet Business Requirements
If you are an ALM practitioner, lead, or manager who is passionate about mastering your craft, you should register now to attend the
ALM Summit, November 16-18th at the Microsoft Conference Center in Redmond, Washington.
When you attend the ALM Summit you will gain deeper insight into your application
lifecycle. You will also discover and learn about
industry best practices that address additional development challenges, and how
Microsoft's ALM Solutions enable and support those best practices . You'll have the opportunity to interact directly with the
Visual Studio team, top engineers from other Microsoft product groups, and industry luminaries - both at the event and at evening receptions. Attending the
ALM Summit will provide you with new tools for making better design, implementation, and technology selection decisions.
Who Presents?
Executives, architects, and managers from Microsoft as well as recognized ALM
industry experts deliver sessions that dive deep into the best practices of ALM. You
will understand the business implications of an agile transformation, and what
the best practices are for achieving success in your own organization.
Industry luminaries address cutting edge topics of interest to ALM practitioners,
leads, and managers - often with humor and always with panache.
Technical leaders from Microsoft product groups will discuss the current state of, and future plans for,
ALM for the Microsoft application platform.
Who Attends?
Most of the attendees are ALM practitioners and managers working to extend their
knowledge of their craft and to make connections with their peers in other
organizations. Many work for major corporations while others are consultants or Microsoft partners focused on custom application development. All share a common interest in pushing the boundaries of software engineering, learning about existing and emerging
best practices, and interacting with engineers from Microsoft, as well as each other.
