The SDS 2008(Jun 02, 2008 – Jun 03, 2008) will showcase the entire range of the rapidly growing Russian software development industry.

The conference will take place in a newly built SPA-hotel “Holiday Club St. Petersburg” Located on the spit of Vasilievsky Island, in the historical center of Saint Petersburg, a short distance from many of the city’s sights. For example, it’s just 200 m to the banks of the Neva, 600 m to Nevski Prospekt and the State Hermitage Museum.

The summit was well known under the names of Russian Outsourcing and Software Summit and RUSSOFT Forum. This year the Program Committee decided to modify the format and the name of the event. The modification is caused by the broadening of the audience covered, for the organizers join together the interests of software outsourcing and product development branches, creating the condition under which participation will be interesting to enterprises, mid-size and small companies developing software for local and Global markets.

SDS 2008 is meant for experience interchange, partner search within the industry, for attracting overseas and local corporate clients and customers to the products and services provided by Russian software industry.
