Skills Matter is pleased to organise the first Flex on Java eXchange. This Annual Flex and Java conference brings together the leading experts on RIA, Flex, Java, Spring and Grails with London's JEE and web development community, for an informal day of deep technical insight and friendly discussion.
Come learn about Java and Flex integration technologies, MVC frameworks, tools, plugins, best practices and innovative ideas from the creators of those technologies and from the industry's innovators.
Spring and Flex expert Rick Evans has kindly agreed to be the Programme Lead, and is currently working with several other leading experts on an interesting and exciting set of talks! The Flex and Java conference aims to provide a real opportunity to share ideas, learn and discuss. We have therefore limited the number of delegates to 125 only, so if you would like to come, get your skates on and register today!.
