What we’re about
Let's bring the CTOs, VPs of Engineering, IT-Managers, etc .(or the upcoming ones) to one table to discuss all matters that are related to the role of a leader of software development. I'm sure that many of us face the same problems, but there is rarely someone with same or higher experience to discuss those issues with.
