alliances. The conference also includes dozens of informative,

with translation and localization services, sending press releases,
developing Software as a Service (SaaS) applications, avoiding
legal pitfalls, reducing chargebacks, and creating affiliate
networks. The conference allows plenty of time to network with
other software developers and software industry service providers.
