Hi Test Folk,
I’m creating a budget for conference attendance for my team in 2018. I used to work for a company where we attended SIGIST and Eurostar regularly but in my last two roles (including this one) there hasn’t been a precedent for attending conferences, something I’m changing but I’m out of the loop with conferences to a degree.
I’ve looked at http://testingconferences.org for conferences located in Europe but would welcome any other suggestions and feedback from those who attended any of these in 2017.
Here’s the list of ones that appealed (in case anyone else finds this useful):
