No payment is required to attend nor to present a talk.

We do accept donations from willing individuals and companies to keep our activities free.

When & Where

The conference will be held from October 31 to November 2 at Universidad Nacional de Salta, in Salta, Argentina.

Workshops are also planned at the same site on October 29 and 30.

Participation

For the talks this year, we’d like to offer a wide range of subjects of interest to our attendees.


We’d like to encourage students, researchers and industry experts to share with us their stories and expertise on different Smalltalk inspired languages, frameworks and methodologies.


Whether you have developed or researched an architecture, component or product, that is based on Smalltalk, or that could offer new insights to Smalltalk developers, we invite you to speak at this year’s conference.


We are also interested in hearing about your experiences with the newest technologies and how they compare to Smalltalk equivalents. Is it easier to implement a Blockchain in Smalltalk than in Scala? Is Pharo offering the required tools to work with Deep Learning? Can Gemstone outperform SQL when working with image processing?
