During my 25-year professional career, I have participated in a large number of conferences dedicated to various software development and delivery activities. However, the Software Engineering Conference in Russia (SECR) is still the only event whose birth I was lucky enough to witness personally, and it is still a pleasure to attend the SECR every year.

The organizers of this unique software engineering forum offer an event format that is appropriate for software developers, analysts, and managers at all levels, right up to CEO. The event is of considerable interest to us due to its well thought out, diversified agenda. We obtain practical value from participation, as the conference attracts genuine industry “gurus” - world-known experts whose ideas drive the course of industry development. The conference also provides a great opportunity to meet our colleagues and discuss a wide range of news and industry issues.

Today, it is no exaggeration to say that the SECR is an event of strategic importance for the Russian software industry. I am pleased to congratulate SECR organizers on their first major anniversary. May this event continue to fascinate and inspire us for many years to come!
