Telerik, a leading provider of development tools and solutions for the Microsoft .NET platform, is honored to be a Sponsor of the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Global Launch which takes place simultaneously on April 12 in five cities worldwide – Las Vegas, London, Kuala Lumpur, Bangalore and Beijing. This major developers’ event of the year summons Microsoft technology experts, MVPs and Community Influencers and presents first-hand innovations throughout the IT ecosystem. Visiting the events in Las Vegas, USA and Bangalore, India is a great chance to meet Telerik professionals and get in touch with the latest and greatest technologies by Telerik.

On April 12-14, Microsoft launches Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4 Framework. As Telerik development plans are always closely aligned with the Microsoft release schedule, at the events, Telerik announces support for Visual Studio 2010 across all its product lines. All products leverage the new functionalities offered in the Microsoft platform, which enables developers to build rich, interactive applications with unparalleled productivity. Alongside this blast, Telerik expands its portfolio with two entirely new product lines: Team Productivity Solutions and Automated Testing Tools. The company also officially premiers a Beta-licensed JustMock productivity tool for creating mock objects. Telerik’s expansion is a result of the company’s recent merger with ArtOfTest, Inc., a software quality assurance technology vendor, and the establishment of a new business division with the consulting, training, and mentoring firm, Imaginet Resources Corp.

The events are not only a chance to be the first to experience the launches of industry innovations but attend a number of sessions by the best speakers in the industry. In Las Vegas Telerik chief evangelist Todd Anglin, together with Joel Semeniuk from Imaginet Resources Corp, and Chris Eyhorn, ArtOfTest give a presentation on Building Better Software: From Planning to Construction to Testing. The session introduces Telerik’s brand new products and time saving tips from experts in the .NET community.
