The Rakuten Tech Conference is just a little over a week away!
We are pleased to announce that like last year, many of our branch offices are holding their own satellite conferences. One of them is in Osaka!
Like all the other satellite offices, Osaka will be live-streaming some sessions shown in Tokyo. We have tentatively selected the following presentations to show:
- Identity on the Blockchain
- The API (R)evolution
- Google: Democratising Machine Learning
- D-Wave: Quantum Computing for the Real World Today
- From the browser to the desktop with NodeJS and Electron
- Layouts in the world of mobile devices
- AI and fundamental game technologies in FINAL FANTASY XV
In addition, we will be holding our very own live sessions! Some of these will give an insight on what it is like to work in Rakuten's second biggest office in Japan, as well as some interesting technological presentations given by local talents. Here are the topics we will cover:
- Prototyping Services
- Life of an Engineer in Rakuten Osaka
- How Product Managers Work
- WannaEat: A computer vision-based, multiplatform restaurant look-up app
- VulcanJS: The Full-stack React + GraphQL Framework
- Don't Manage too hard!
