About GOTO

The target audience for GOTO conferences are software developers, IT architects, product owners, agilists and project managers.

The idea for GOTO came about in the late 1990's as the management at Trifork was dissatisfied with conferences that existed and wanted to create a forum that would give development staff inspiration, energy and desire to learn coupled with the chance to network and simply to hang out with some "rock stars" of IT community.

Now 15 years later, the concept has grown from a small software conference to some of the leading developer conferences in the world.

GOTO Amsterdam is co-produced by Trifork Switzerland and Trifork Amsterdam and is a vendor independent conference where the program is put together by a Program Advisory Board.

Trifork is a software development company situated in Aarhus, Denmark. We organize conferences all over the world under the motto: "For developers by developers". Trifork's vision is to be known as the company that inspires and advises on the optimization of business critical IT systems and takes future IT technologies and put them to use for customers. Our conferences are vendor independent.
