Each participant will receive a unique access to a modern event platform, where they will be able to follow the performances on the Main Stage and take part in practical lectures conducted within 4 thematic paths.

- The new reality has created an opportunity for us to increase the range of POZITIVE TECHNOLOGIES. A year ago, several hundred people participated in the first edition of the conference, organized at the Poznań International Fair. This year we will meet on the web, thanks to which specialists not only from all over the country, but also from abroad, can join us. This is a unique opportunity to present the possibilities of professional development in the IT sector in our region and the interest of highly qualified specialists, sought after by technology companies - says Katarzyna Sobocińska, deputy director at the Investor Relations Department of the Poznań City Hall.
