Ice Tea Group attends BASTA! 2024 in Mainz

BASTA, originally a .NET event, debuted in 1986. Since then, broader topics have been introduced, mainly around web development and artificial intelligence. This year’s conference drew in hundreds – with many more online – for a few days of talks, workshops, and fun.

DC To Deutschland

Our team is spread all across the globe, so it isn’t always easy to get together! BASTA presented a valuable opportunity to bridge this gap. We flew in team members from all over, and the reunions were a highlight. 

Breakfast, Brains, and BASTA’ 

Our modernization partner, fecher, presented one of our favorite sessions. Robin Peters‘ session, “The Migration of WPF Applications to the Web,” resonated with attendees seeking to streamline their legacy systems and complemented our very own Thomas Althammer’s sessions.

Thomas’ session, “Turn Old into New: Transform Windows Applications into Web-Based Solutions with Wisej.NET,” showcased the power of Wisej.NET and caused significant curiosity among attendees interested in modernizing their legacy systems. His keynote, “From Hype to Utility: How Does AI Work in Business Applications?” delivered a practical talk for developers, encouraging them to explore AI’s real-world applications to enhance business workflows.

Connecting with the Community

We were thrilled to have a booth where attendees could meet our team and learn about Wisej.NET. The energy was genuinely fantastic, and we want to thank everyone who stopped by.

Downtime

The conference wasn’t just about technical deep dives. It was an opportunity for team bonding. After the conference days, we explored Mainz, enjoyed the region’s renowned beers, and indulged in the local cuisine – what a way to unwind.
