The Lead Developer is an international conference featuring inspiring stories and practical advice on leading and managing technical teams. The programme is based on the themes of teams, tech and tools: how to develop your team, new and emerging tech, and processes to improve the way you work. With incredible conferences already in London, New York and Austin, we can't wait to see you in Berlin this December!
The majority of attendees are Tech Leads, Lead Developers, Engineering Managers, VPs of Engineering, and CTOs, or those looking to move into those roles, from a wide range of industries including software, fintech, healthcare, and e-commerce.
