3-2-1-Let's go! Microsoft Developer Tour in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan

In anticipation of the launch of Windows 10, the release of Visual Studio 2015 and the update of our Azure and Office 365 cloud services, we decided that it was very important for us to personally communicate with the developers: to tell something useful ourselves and listen to the developers on the ground. Therefore, we decided not just to hold events in various cities, but to go on a technological expedition to the cities of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan.

We will do events, hakatons, evening meetings, gatherings, meet with individual companies, students and startups. For the expedition we even prepare a specially equipped trailer!
