Sogeti UK and UNICOM Announce Date and Theme for TestExpo™ 2014
Following the successful TestExpo™ 2013 UK conference, Sogeti UK and UNICOM reveal this year’s TestExpo event will take place in London on 21 October 2014
London, UK, 7 May 2014 - Sogeti UK, a leading provider of professional technology
services specialising in software testing, and UNICOM, a global conference and
training company, announce the return of the UK’s largest and most renowned
software testing event on 21 October 2014, for what will be the 30th
TestExpo™.
Last year’s hugely successful TestExpo conference was the first to be jointly hosted
by Sogeti and UNICOM and has sparked a strong partnership between the two
businesses. They will play to their strengths to produce an extremely high standard
event.
Each year the TestExpo programme is updated and refreshed with exciting new
themes and topics that impact today’s business. For 2014 the key theme addressed
will be “Defining the Digital Testing Strategy”. This very current topic will aim to
address how technology and software are moving towards an increasingly digital
landscape, how this is impacting testing and what needs to change in order to keep
up with the pace of innovation.
In 2013 a number of new features were introduced to the TestExpo programme, such
as increased opportunities to network, share tips, and facilitated round table
discussions which received excellent feedback from the audience. All are to be
repeated in 2014 alongside the usual thought-provoking keynotes, case studies and
presentations delivered by thought leaders and experts from leading organisations in
the software testing arena.
What sets TestExpo apart its emphasis on knowledge sharing and "real life"
experience, providing participants with insight into how other organisations are
leading the field in testing and quality assurance. The sessions and exhibition are
structured to maximise opportunities for visitors and exhibitors to network and interact
and learn about new opportunities, with the option to view demos, and learn about
innovative ideas and techniques.
“Working with the Sogeti team last year to organise TestExpo was a fantastic
experience which culminated in an event that received great feedback from
delegates, speakers and sponsors alike. The structured breakout sessions proved a
big hit with everyone and will be central to this year’s programme - whilst continuing
the same successful format. TestExpo again introduces new topics, ideas and
speakers in order that all participants come away with the most up to date testing and
QA knowledge to apply”, says Alec McCutcheon, Director of UNICOM.
Lara Irwin, UK Marketing Director at Sogeti comments: “Sogeti is delighted to be
collaborating again with UNICOM to organise TestExpo 2014 and build on the
fantastic response generated by last year’s event. It really is fantastic to be part of an
event that continues to address cutting edge challenges in Testing, but most of all it’s
great to see so many organisations benefit from sharing their wins, their ideas and
their challenges in a community that is able to provide the right level of help and
support.”
