Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to participate in The Software Engineering Conference in Russia (SEC(R) 2005). It will be held in Moscow on October 27-28, 2005. This conference is the result of cooperation between RUSSOFT - the Russian National Association of Software Development Companies, and RUSSEE, the market leader in education and consulting for the software industry.
SEC(R) 2005 acts as an international forum for in-depth and substantive discussion on the emerging technologies and methodologies being developed to overcome the challenges that exist in different areas of software engineering. The main topics will be the following: Technology and Technology Solutions, Process Improvement, People in Software Engineering.
We expect this event to generate significant interest in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltic countries and an attendance of 700+ is expected. The leading experts and gurus from the USA and Europe are invited.
The following SE experts will speak at the conference:
Michael A. Cusumano is the Sloan Management Review Distinguished Professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Sloan School of Management. He specializes in strategy, product development, and entrepreneurship in the software business.
