The Summit

Join us for an unforgettable one-day event, the Shonan Code Summit (ShoCode), focused on exploring and exchanging cutting-edge ideas and knowledge in the world of software engineering and architecture. Our goal is to bring together the finest engineers who are passionate about creating a brighter future for developers and enhancing their professional fulfillment, and together, we will push the boundaries of innovation and design.

• Location: TBD (Hayama, Japan)
• Date: TBD (August/September, 2023)
• Cost: TBD (goal is under 10,000yen)

At the heart of this event, we have a unique and engaging format:

1. Engineers will submit a self-introduction page (bio) showcasing their deep technical insights, concepts, code, and so on.
2. Contributors who submit engaging and insightful activities and knowledge will have the opportunity to present as speakers.
3. Attendees will have the chance to share their technical knowledge in shorter "speed-dating" type sessions, fostering dynamic and rapid exchanges of ideas.
4. Ample opportunities for networking, collaboration, and discussions will be provided throughout the day.

Key requirements for the presentations include:

1. A strong focus on technical depth and innovation
2. Vendor-neutral content (no marketing)
3. Inclusion of reusable code (programming language, scripts, or configuration/infrastructure as code)
