By Iris Yamashita

QtJS Keynotes Collage

Last month’s Qt Japan Summit 2015 offered insightful keynotes & several technical sessions focusing on the latest Qt features as well as amazing demos and customer stories from industries such as automotive, consumer electronics and automation.

We are happy that this year’s event was even larger than last year’s and we have our sponsors SRA, ISB, Adeneo Embedded, Wind River, PTP and the Japan Qt Users’ group to thank for that.

Whether you were able to attend the event or missed it, the presentation materials are available for your convenience.
