The I.T. scene in Cagayan de Oro is just starting up. Thank you to DevCon Philippines or Developers Connect Philippines for igniting the scene. DevCon is non-profit organization which aims to promote the “IT Pinoy Talent” mainly by providing a unique venue for IT students, educators, professionals and enthusiasts to Sync, Support and Succeed.

I attended the CDO Geek Up event which was held at Cleversoft, Inc. located 3/F Malagar Bldg, Upper Balulang, Cagayan de Oro City. The event was attended by around 25 plus individuals from freelancers to different IT companies and schools.

I like the event because it promoted the talents we have in the city, the capabilities of the Kagayanons in the I.T. field, and the possibilities of the city to be one of the I.T. hubs in the Philippines.

Thank you, Haifa Carina Baluyos, for inviting us, the CDO Bloggers. I am one with you in your cause to promote the IT Pinoy Talent.

To the CEO of Cleversoft, Inc. Todd Grannis, your talk reminded everyone of us to give the best shot to all things. You reminded me of the #YOLO (You Only Live Once) hashtag.

Sir Michael John Sia, the Manager of Gaisano Interpace, I appreciate your honesty. You were challenging Cagayan de Oro to go to the next level. Your experiences will surely give insights to all the attendees.

The “Tech Talks” portion also educated and updated me with the latest in the web development. As a web addict, I got hooked to the talks given by Arthur Vincent Simon, Freelancer Web Developer on “Introduction to Twitter Bootstrap”, Cris John Tagupa, Web Developer at Syntactics, Inc. on “Trends in Web Development” and Lionel Amarado, General Manager at Innovative Web Technologies on “mxGraph – Javascript Library for Creating Interactive Diagrams”.

I look forward to more I.T. events in the City. DevCon Philippines, more power to you!
