The World's Northernmost Apple Developers' Conference

What?

One day of workshops and two days of tech talks - memories made every evening.

Learn about the latest trends, best practices, and strategies for developing better apps in Swift across Apple's platforms.

Sauna, ice swimming, live music and drinks to help you forget about work and connect with other Apple-minded developers. And who knows, maybe the northern lights will light the sky in one of the evenings.

All this while we remembering respectful code of conduct towards each other.

Where?

The conference is held in Theatre Rio, which is located in the heart of the city of Oulu.

Silicon Valley of the North

Oulu is known of its vibrant tech-scene and innovation ecosystem.

Local companies and research institutions have been major players behind technologies such as 5G, GSM, IRC, heart-rate monitoring, and wearable fitness devices.

Subarctic climate

March is the best time to visit Oulu during a winter - it's still cold but not extremely freezing and it's the most likely month to have a good amount of snow.

Just remember to dress multiple layers of clothing when you go outside and you'll be fine.
