Simon is the co-author of one of the most popular books about Erlang: Erlang Programming and he has written books on Erlang, Haskell and dependent types. He’ll be talking about The Power of Functional Programming and how you can increase your programming productivity by using ideas from this paradigm.

Ben is an Elixir programmer and the Lead Developer at Bleacher Report, where he’s leading the transition from Ruby and Rails to Elixir and Phoenix. He’ll be giving a talk about just that, using Bleacher Report’s story to show the fulfillment of the promises of Elixir and Phoenix.

Mariano was born in Córdoba and he still keeps the accent :P. He’s now working on his own company, event-fabric and he’ll be talking about when and why are distributed systems necessary.

The founder of Erlang Solutions and the other co-author of the book I mentioned before (and a couple of others), Francesco will be giving a 4-hour-long workshop about Reactive Systems and Micro Service Architectures.

I’ll also take the chance to give a talk (of course :P) and I’ll be talking about ADTs and other heuristics that would help you be a better Erlanger.

But that’s not all, we have room for several other speakers, and you can be one of them!! If you have an idea for a talk, submit it here. We’ll love to hear what you have to say. The talks can be in Spanish or English. Mine will be in Spanish, of course ;)
