Varberg Stadshotell
Varberg, Sweden
myConf is a lunch-to-lunch single-track conference with three sit-down meals and nine world-class speakers in beautiful Varberg, Sweden.
24 hours of inspiration, learning, and thought-provoking discussions about business and software development that makes a difference.
Yes, myConf will have speakers this year as well! We're working on presentations for all of them.
Can't wait to be inspired? Might we suggest watching all the talks from myConf 2024 and all the talks from myConf 2023?
Solve Better Problems
Putting profit in focus can cause teams to converge on reductive solutions. True value is found in the dynamic interplay between reality and possibility. Finding it doesn't always feel efficient, but creating space to tap into what is emerging will help us solve better problems and meet the systemic complexity required to build a sustainable future.

The Mind Behind the Method
Getting software teams—or yourself—to adopt new practices can be challenging. Some resist adoption from the beginning, others start enthusiastically, and many more than we would like to admit gradually revert to prior ways of working. In this talk, Aslam explores how cognitive biases might affect practice adoption in the hope of finding more natural approaches that respect how developers think, decide, and work.

Day two ends with lunch.
Tickets are on sale! myConf is a small conference, which means the tickets are limited. So make sure to grab your spot today.
Price: 4 500 SEK (excluding VAT)
Included: Eight talks from world-class speakers, two sit-down lunches, one three-course dinner, coffee breaks and loads of inspiration.
In contrast to the name, myConf is our conference. We create the experience together, so let's make it one to remember with warmth, to be proud of and to want to come back to.
Here are a few things to remember:
All backgrounds and levels of knowledge matter. It's not a competition!
Want to ask a question? Great, we encourage that! Make sure it's a question and not your chance to voice your agenda.
Be on time for talks and turn your devices on silent.
Of course, the bottom line: we have zero tolerance for harassment, disrespect or bullying. Anyone violating this one will be asked to leave without a refund.

We care about the planet. If you choose planet-friendly means of transportation, when possible, you’ll have our eternal gratitude. With that said, here are some options:
Train: The venue is a 10-minute walk, a 5-minute bus ride, or a 3-minute taxi ride from Varberg’s train station (Google Maps Link). Within Sweden, you can find train tickets at sj.se or hallandstrafiken.se.
Plane: If you want to fly, the nearest airport is Göteborg Landvetter Airport (GOT). It’s about a 1-hour drive or a combination of airport bus and train via Gothenburg. For international travelers, Copenhagen Airport (CPH) is another option, with a direct train taking approximately 3 hours.
myConf is hosted by factor10, a small consultancy of business-oriented coding architects in Sweden.
