PCI-SIG Developers Conference Europe 2009

March 9-10, 2009
InterContinental Frankfurt
Frankfurt, Germany

The PCI-SIG was excited to return to Europe for the PCI-SIG Developers Conference Europe 2009! This year's event was at the InterContinental Frankfurt in Frankfurt, Germany. Focusing on the most up-to-date PCI technology, the DevCon 2009 is the only event in Europe which provides comprehensive training on all aspects of PCI technology, including an introduction to PCIe 3.0.

Overview

The PCI-SIG DevCon was designed to help our member companies develop and bring to market exciting new products utilizing PCI technology. PCI-SIG DevCon 2009 continued that tradition by featuring the latest series of technical training sessions presented by PCI-SIG Workgroup chairs and other PCI experts.

The PCI-SIG Developers Conference Program Guide is now available for member download. This Guide provides an overview of the entire event including presentation abstracts, schedule, presenters and sponsorship information.
