Behind the scenes
With the «Frontend Conference Association» as organizer and legal body, we strive to develop
the relationship and exchange between local and international professionals interested in frontend
technologies and UX, emphasizing the importance of the respective fields and their relevance to
Zurich as a major IT hub.
The «Frontend Conference Association» is a non-profit association, currently run by web professionals from Zurich in their spare time. The web design community has been good to us and we think
this is a good way to return the favor.
We see our conference as a community event and a great opportunity to meet and learn from
brilliant people. That‘s why we try to keep ticket prices a low as possible to make an event that is affordable for everyone. On top of that we broadcast a free live stream of all talks in both tracks. The
videos are available online for free only a few minutes after the talks are finished.
