  3 days. 40+ interactive sessions. Zero keynotes. No vendor pitches. Just software engineers who care about their craft. Talking about what actually matters. To them. Making their own schedule, adapting as they go along, inspired by earlier sessions and the casual, sunny setting by the Cretan sea. Come chat about the software making craft, tools & infrastructure, team dynamics, future trends, and human factors in engineering. And, well... "AI". 🐘 Ready for this year's event? We certainly are!

  How does a day start in the event?  Breakfast is just finished, we`ve gathered in the main room, everyone grabs a pen and paper and fills it with session ideas they want to propose, a time and a location. After half an hour, the board is filled. It's 9:30 am, the first sessions that are about to start are: - GraalVM - Static Java compile - Scaling Teams + Building Autonomous teams - Azure Devops CI/CD Takeaways - Procrasti-learning: learning instead of doing - Dance session Which would you choose? 🧐  What would you like to be added? 😁 #SoCraTes #Crete

  What is an Unconference? 🔄 An unconference is a dynamic, participant-driven event where ideas flow, connections spark, and collaboration thrives!  💡Unlike traditional conferences with fixed speakers and presentations, attendees shape the discussions based on what matters most to them. It’s open, informal, and a completely different way to learn and engage—you might never look at events the same way again! 🚀 Curious to experience this in person?
