The devLink Technical Conference is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization established in 2006 to educate IT professionals on current and emerging technologies. Our goal is accomplished through an annual event which brings industry experts together to present the latest information. The event is provided at little or no cost to attendees as possible, through the sponsorship of supporting organizations. Since our inception we have held conference each year to a growing audience.
