[TYPO3-english] TYPO3camp Venlo (Netherlands, April 21–23)

[Patrick Broens]

TYPO3camp Venlo is going into its fourth incarnation and draws a lot of
attendants from Germany as it is conveniently situated at the German border.

TYPO3camp Venlo features two keynote speakers on the first day, friday.
One about big data and one about mobile from some very interesting speakers.

Big data, smart machines and the changes it will cause in HR
============================================================

Han Stoffels will talk about big data, smart machines and the changes it
will cause in HR (human resources) and the job market. Han states that:

“it is a blessing that smart machines and automation will take away half
of the current jobs, as most people are not happy with their job anyway”!

Han Stoffels is the founder of 8vance Matching Technologies BV, a
Netherlands-based start-up. 8vance is a data driven matching technology
company that utilises extensive profiles, big data, and sophisticated
matching algorithms to build solutions for and disrupt some large
marketplaces.

Micro-Moments
=============

Google Germany will provide a speaker on Micro-Moments, which are the
new battleground for brands.

Mobile has changed the way we live, and what we expect of brands. It’s
fractured the consumer journey into hundreds of real-time, intent-driven
micro-moments. The presentation shares insights on the next step in mobile.

TYPO3 Inc
=========

At the General Assembly of the TYPO3 Association on April 6 in Essen it
was decided to start TYPO3 Inc., our very own company. Alain Veuve,
secretary of the board of the TYPO3 Association, will reveal what is up
next in the road to a TYPO3 company.

TYPO3 version 8
===============

The TYPO3 core team has officially started the next development cycle,
TYPO3 version 8. The main development is aimed at making the lives of
TYPO3 users easier. There are some fancy features for editing content
coming up. TYPO3 will get more robust and flexible under the hood and
the code base will be cleaned up more and more. Mathias Schreiber,
product owner of TYPO3, will talk about the future of TYPO3 v. 8.

More information
================

Of course there will be many more sessions and most of them will be
determined on the event itself as is quite common with a barcamp. The
