Safer, cheaper, shorter.

But still FrenchKit.

Despite the Covid situation, FrenchKit’s raison-d’être is relevant today as it always has been: bringing developers together.

This is why FrenchKit is happening physically this year, shorter and safer, with much fewer but much cheaper tickets available. Still, its very gist will be there, with the same passion and the same care for contents.

See you this October, at the FrenchKit SE.

Special COVID-19 Protective Measures

Because type safety is far from enough.

This year we put our best efforts into providing a safe environment and help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Extra measures will be taken to guarantee a hassle-free conference to attendees and speakers alike.

As a result, at FrenchKit 2020 the following measures will be applied:

Number of (non-speaker) attendees limited to 65
Capacity of the conference room reduced by 67%
Distanced seats in the conference room
Coffee serving spots spread out across the whole venue
No lunch served on site
Mandatory mask wearing
Hand sanitisers available across the venue
Regular aeration of the conference spaces
