Global CSS

The first ever droidcon Toronto is happening November 13th.

Toronto has an amazing Android developer community and we have been looking for ways to expand our global community of Android developers to Canada for quite some time. Several years ago we started in Montreal, but have been absent for a few years. We recently were contacted by the organizers of Canada's longest running Android conference, AndroidTO.

AndroidTO has been running for 9 years now and was first organized by the fantastic team at SYBMILITY INTERSECT. They have brought the best in Android to the community with talks from Google, Tunblr, Cyanogen, Facebook, Adobe and more. They are passionate about supporting the community and share our same values. When we started talking with the team there, we realized that we shared the same purpose and wanted to bring the support of our Berlin-based headquarters team to ensure that we continue to bring the best of Android to Toronto.

We are excited to partner with the local team there and organizer Jeff Corcoran who has spoken at droidcon in the past and is a long-time community advocate and community organizer.

Here is the new look at feel of droidcon Toronto. We hope you like it. More coming soon...
