I’m very excited to be part of the first edition of “The ActionScript Conference” at the National Library in Singapore on October 19th! With fellow speakers like Lee Brimelow, Michael Plank, Stefan Wessels and others it promises to be a great day.

The conference is organized by the Singapore Flex Usergroup that includes such talented people as Hu Shunjie, Arul Prasad. Genuinely looking forward to meeting the Singapore community and doing some sightseeing.

If you haven’t booked your ticket yet, you’re sadly too late since they’ve already sold out. Make sure to keep an eye out for a next edition though!
