Join us at the 4th annual Minnesota Developers Conference. This action packed event is featuring three technical tracks totalling twelve sessions, and will be showcasing the innovations in SilverLight, .NET 4.0, and the Alt.NET movement.

Going Green
At ILM, we firmly believe in helping to make our environment a better place to live. In this spirit, we have partnered with the Recycling Association of Minnesota (RAM). As a result of our partnership with RAM, we are not only offering in-depth technical sessions by great speakers, but also the following fun activities to promote environmental awareness.
  • Free recycling of small electronics at the event. You can feel free to bring Ink jet cartridges, PDA's, iPODS, digital cameras, cell phones, laptop computers (we can not accept desktop computers or monitors), and earn Green Points when you recycle them at the event. Since every recycled item also raises funds for RAM, we are encouraging all attendees to recycle as much as possible
  • Silent Auction of a few Green products. Every bidder earns Green Points even if they don't win the bid. All of the proceeds from the silent auction are donated to RAM.
  • Carpool to the event and earn Green Points.
  • Show your bus pass and earn Green Points.
  • Recycle your waste at the specially designated bins and earn Green Points.
  • You can purchase more Green Points by donating to RAM while at the event.
A raffle drawing from the Green Points will be held during the afternoon break. The more Green Points you earn throughout the day, the higher your chances will be for winning the Grand Priz

$150 per attendee. Downlaod presentations from this event.

The architecture of the McNamara Alumni Center reflects Minnesota�s beautiful natural landscape � its 10,000 lakes, the North Shore, the Iron Range and the Northern Lights. Both inside and out, the building features materials from the state including copper and Lake Superior granite. We honor Minnesota�s beauty through efforts to preserve it.

Environmentally-Friendly Cleaning
Cleaning protocols for the McNamara Alumni Center feature five Green Seal Certified cleaning products that account for more than 95% of all cleaning products used in the 230,000 square foot building

Recycling on the Go
We desire to make it easy for our visitors to continue their recycling efforts when they are away from home. Throughout the first floor event spaces, including the underground tunnel connected to the parking ramp, visitors have access to five different recycling centers. These recycling centers allow guests to recycle newspaper, office paper, plastic bottles, glass and aluminum cans.
