The collaborative engineering process is key to Linaro’s success and is what makes being part of Linaro so unique. LAS16 will be all about the engineers, the process involved in building and testing software, and enjoying working with technology. Linaro Connect LAS16 will be held at the beautiful JW Marriott Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.
