About Us

RebelCon 2023

Rebellious thinkers change the world.

There are always game changers in history. The industrialists of the new century, the bankers of the 80’s. Today it’s the software practitioners. This is our time, software is eating the world and software practitioners are the dream makers. Embrace your rebel, dare differently and love what you do.

This year we will bring together the software engineering community from across Ireland for a two day extravaganza of workshops and talks.
