APEX World 2019: Het gaat weer los!



The very first and still the largest Oracle APEX-focused conference in the world, APEX World 2019, is happening again this year on March 25/26 2019 in Rotterdam, Netherlands.  Incredibly, it's the 10th year for this conference, and like the global Oracle APEX community, it's still growing!

If you've never been to a user group conference, then you should consider attending one this year, and APEX World is an excellent choice.  There is something very organic and authentic about user group conferences.  It is a collection of enthusiasts, professionals, students, partners, business leaders, citizen developers, and full-stack developers, all there for a common purpose.  The APEX community is unique, certainly at Oracle, and probably within the industry too.  You will find this common spirit of sharing and camaraderie ever-present at APEX World.  It helps that the Dutch are naturally kind people, too (and very direct). ;)

This year at APEX World, there are a number of important additions, including:

  • A business seminar "The Future of APEX"
  • A separate track with real customers presenting their real success stories.  This is ideal for someone who is curious about APEX and the large variety of problems being solved with APEX today
  • Numerous deep-dive sessions for those who are experienced APEX developers
  • A special student track
  • Workshops for students from academies/ universities so they can build their first Low Code Oracle APEX app

There is honestly something for everyone.  And the vast majority of sessions will be in English, so there's no reason not to attend.  Did I mention that the Dutch are super nice?

I am honored to attend APEX World 2019, and I will be there, along with product development team superstars Hilary Farrell, Shakeeb Rahman and Jason Straub.  Personally, I relish the opportunity to engage with our many customers and partners, understand what you're doing, understand what your pain points are, and get your advice how we can help you in the future.  The APEX team is invested in your success.  We look forward to seeing you there!
