Conferences are a great way to learn from the best in the community and to meet new people who share similar passions; but they’re often packed with loads of ideas and lessons that you find difficult to implement in practical and effective ways. ProgNET London does things differently.

This three day experience covers the most important .NET developments with one day of talks followed by two days of expert led practical hands-on workshops so you can immediately apply your learnings in a more lasting and impactful manner.

Noteworthy Workshops 📝

We get that it can be tricky to pick and choose the sessions you want to attend. Here’s a selection of workshops we think should be on your radar!
