Within the conference the agenda is divided into keynote presentations (for the full audience) and stream/ track presentations (when the audiences choose between 3 or 4 simultaneous sessions).Also scheduled throughout the agenda are workshops – longer sessions in which the participants can deep dive into a particular topic, and barcamps – with spontaneous presentations from the participants.There are opportunities to network throughout the whole event: coffee and lunch breaks held in the exhibition space, and the droidcon Italy party. About the venue The OGR – Officine Grande Riparazioni – brings together creation & refurbishment, industrial & technological, artistic & scientific, in one space. The venue was re-opened mid 2017, following a one hundred million euro investment by the CRT Foundation, and we are extremely pleased to be bringing droidcon to this special and very unique complex. The Officine Nord are an open multifunctional exhibition space which retain traces of the building’s past but also incorporate the best AV tools & technologies. The intention and the ambiance of the OGR are a perfect match for droidcon in the year of ‘Android for business’, and sets the pace for a highly valuable droidcon edition.
