Build 2016 sold out in 1 minute
« on: January 19, 2016, 10:29:04 PM »

Microsoft’s annual developer conference, Build 2016’s registration just opened a little while ago. The company is charging $2195 for the event, which will start on March 30. Surprisingly, the tickets for the event sold out very quickly this year — in 1 minute, that’s 60 seconds. Microsoft’s Chief Evangelist of Developer Experience, Steven Guggenheimer tweeted:



Additionally, it is worth noting that unlike some of the previous Build conferences, Microsoft won’t be giving away any hardware at this year’s Build which could be disappointing for some. However, the company says it will offer a deeper technical experience for developers:

Quote
In some previous years Microsoft has provided a hardware giveaway to support platform development priorities for Build attendees. This year, we will forgo hardware in favor of delivering a deeper technical experience for developers.
It will be interesting to see what the new “deeper technical” experiences will be — as usual, we will be covering Build live from the event, and publish the latest news from the conference. So stay tuned!
