Infobip Shift Goes Global with Biggest Conference Yet

Infobip Shift, the largest developer conference in Southeast Europe, brought together the world’s top developers for its 2022 edition. Over 4,000 attendees congregated in the coastal city of Zadar, Croatia to hear from more than 60 speakers from across the tech sector. This year marked the technology conference’s 11th and largest ever event, and the second since Shift Conference was acquired by Infobip.

The two-day, multistage hybrid conference was dedicated to people passionate about software, including developers, founders, industry disruptors, developer relations (DevRel) experts, and global tech giants. Attendees had access to a broad range of interactive, engaging, and exciting content, alongside social events, with topics ranging from blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and NFTs, to the state of web User Interface.

The event comprised six stages, with the circular main stage splitting into three separate, smaller stages. Stages are also dedicated to Web3, Cloud Native, and Infobip’s Startup Tribe, which brings together the world’s most innovative startups to help fast-track their growth and development. Speakers included representatives from global tech giants such as Microsoft, Google, and Cisco, alongside global tech stars such as Charity Majors, CTO at Honeycomb, Hakon Wium Lie, the father of programming language CSS, Kent C. Dodds, co-founder of Remix.run, Tejas Kumar from Xata.io, and Kitze, creator of Sizzy.

“Infobip Shift 2022 has once again proved itself to be a central event for the global developer community. This year’s event was a huge success, exceeding previous years in terms of the level of the event production and customer experience, and laying the foundations for continued growth and international expansion. It was our biggest year yet, with more than 4,000 people attending, over 40% of whom came from outside of Croatia,“ said Ivan Burazin, Infobip’s Chief Developer Experience Officer, and Infobip Shift’s founder.

“Developers are the creators of the future, and we see them as one of the key levers for exponential growth at Infobip. Our Developer Relations strategy is focussed on supporting developers globally, providing them with a superior developer experience by creating expert content, alongside easy-to-use software development kits, understandable API documentation, and an unrivaled developer experience,“ concluded Burazin.
