To our Android Developer Community, Speakers and Corporate Partners,
the droidcon Global team was saddened by the news that our droidcon London partner Skillsmatter is now under administration due to bankruptcy proceedings. We were further distressed to hear that Skillsmatter has removed the conference videos from their platform and did not communicate or justify this action adequately to the developer community and to the speakers who took time to prepare their talks and travel to droidcon London. We will be reaching out individually to speakers in the coming days to try and make this right. We will also be pursing all legal avenues to ensure that the conference videos are made freely available to the community on our global community platform at droidcon.com.
We are pleased to announce that our droidcon HQ team will be taking over droidcon London and it will run in the same location and the dates as planned. We expect to honor any tickets that were purchased prior to the Skills Matter bankruptcy. We have now officially opened the call for papers and we a new ticket shop has opened. Please check it all out at london.droidcon.com.
If you have already submitted a paper, we urge your to resubmit your paper through the link at the new droidcon London site. If you have purchased tickets, please send us an email and a confirmation of ticket purchase to global@droidcon.de.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Sincerely,
droidcon Global Management Team
