How to choose which tech event in Bangalore to attend

Match the event to your role first, then check who is on stage.

If you are a…	Start with
Software engineer or AI engineer	WeAreDevelopers Conference India, GAINS, specialist community conferences
Platform, cloud or DevOps engineer	WeAreDevelopers Conference India, UbuCon India
Security professional	Black Hat India, AltSecCON
CTO or engineering leader	WeAreDevelopers Conference India
Infrastructure leader	Datacenter Summit

Three checks help before you buy a ticket. Are the speakers practitioners who run systems in production, or mainly vendors? Does the agenda go deep on your stack, or stay at strategy level? And is the event in the city centre or at BIEC on Tumkur Road, which needs extra travel time from most of Bangalore?
