InfoShare Conference. What were the interesting highlights?

It was a really good opportunity to meet many interesting companies, get to know inspiring, talented people and avant-garde innovations from the world of technology. Naturally, we were most interested in the specific issues related to vývoj softwaru, so during the conference, we noticed several cutting-edge startups from Dubai that focus their work on this.

And here is the first curiosity. We found out that there are not many Ruby language developers on the trh. Companies that develop their products in this language have so far cooperated with software houses from India and Pakistan. However, we discovered that they have often experienced a lack of quality in their work; the written kód wasn’t living up to the expectations of the clients and the final produkt have consequently fallen short of what was required. During some conversations with the representatives of these companies, we could clearly understand their intention to move their focus to Europe to find new partners there. This is a matter that experts from the software development industry have been discussing for quite some time now. The reason for this migration of interest is due to the fact that Europe is a market filled with qualified developers. They provide high-quality coding and reliable work ethic.
