HOUSE OF WEB DEVELOPERS AND TECHNOLOGY.

Cloudbazaar the Conference & Trade Show For Web Pros


Hey! You’re a web professional in India! Here’s a look at our ‘community’

Welcome developers! As you know my blog is dedicated to helping you learn how to learn, upskill, innovate and possibly help you start your own ‘web business’.  While many of us are web developers, we really do so much more- hence the term ‘web professional’ which acknowledges the wide range of work we do for our customers, including web design, online marketing, content marketing and more.

In India, web pros stand out from other parts of the world. Web pros in India are mainly self-taught (this sounds familiar, right?). As good as we are at our web businesses, we do face some challenges such as:

  1. Customers who keep changing requirements mid-way through projects
  2. The huge cost and effort involved in hiring/training staff to be available 24X7 for your web business
  3. Marketing online

It would be nice for the many of us who feel this way to meet, talk and learn from more established pros! There is an event coming up soon that should give us all the opportunity to do this.  ‘Cloudbazaar in association with .org’ is a conference and trade show for web professionals that invites us to interact with fellow web pros, discover new partnership opportunities and learn the latest developments in technologies and ideas from industry veterans. Plus, since Cloudbazaar’s aim is to ensure maximum access for web professionals like us, you can attend for free. While I encourage you to find out more about the event on their website- cloudbazaar.org, here is a brief idea of what you can experience:
        The Cloudbazaar Conference:
Sessions by industry experts on topics ranging from technology, design, digital marketing, business and more. This year features speakers from Automattic (the company behind WordPress, Jetpack and WooCommerce), .org, Microsoft, Freshworks, Think Design, Mirum India, Verisign (the brand behind .com) and more.

        Workshops:
Tutorials and workshops on advanced and intermediate topics. You can expect workshops on advanced digital marketing, technology, business strategies from Google, the IDE (the Indian Institute of Digital Education), .co powered by Neustar and more.

        Speed Networking:
An excellent, organized and efficient way to get the community meet, interact and form new partnership opportunities. If you’re shy or never too sure how to go about networking, this is something you should try. You’d never know who you’d meet and in my experience, opportunities formed through networking can take you places!

        Trade Show:
An exhibition by leading brands showcasing innovative products and services to cater to web pro needs

‘Cloudbazaar in association with .org’ will be held on the 6th of December (Friday) at the Bombay Exhibition Center in Mumbai. Register for free at cloudbazaar.org. Let me know if you’re thinking of going!
