IBM Developer Austria

Developers, Ops, domain experts - let's get your hands dirty! We are rolling out a hybrid series of hands-on practitioner events around IBM Bob, the new AI-powered development partner designed to help you ideate, build, modernize and ship better code, faster.

​What makes these events stand out?
👩‍💻👨‍💻🧑‍💻🪩 Coding Watch Parties in Berlin, Cologne, Frankfurt, Ehningen, Vienna, Zurich and online/remote at the same time.

Join live sessions together with other creators — not just watching, but discussing, reacting, and learning in real time.
Think of it as turning a webinar into a shared experience.

The final 2 AI Coding Watch Parties with Bob, each with tracks for beginners, intermediate and experts, will take place on
- 15th October and
- 1st December
The Coding Watch Parties are free of charge. Onsite tickets are limited.

​🥷🧙‍♀️🧝🪄 Hands-on + Community-first
From hackathons to deep dives, these events are built to help you explore modern AI-driven development workflows and connect with peers.
​
Bob is built to support domain users without coding experience as well as R&D + Ops folks from the ideation stage up to modernization of legacy apps, to secure, fullstack enterprise-ready development. IBM Bob supports the entire SDLC — and these sessions show and guide you how it actually works in best practice.

​If you’re curious about where AI is taking software engineering next, this is a great place to plug in.

Detailed agenda will follow... 🙂
