Is Microsoft only about desktop PCs and office productivity software? There are two sides to every story. Come and find out about the other side of Microsoft’s story – the side where Microsoft helps developers develop and run rich, engaging and robust applications on the web and the cloud.

This event will showcase Microsoft’s web and cloud development platforms, as well as launch a brand new program in Singapore designed to help web developers obtain Microsoft software for free. Special guest and renowned Azure expert David Chappelle will also be there to explore in depth how you can take advantage of Windows Azure to transform your web applications to run in the cloud.
