"We continue to build a closer relationship with the
Brazilian market. We are glad about this face-to-face encounter as it proves
we're on the right path, and it encourages us to keep on working and growing in
Brazil. All this is very important because an increasing number of companies are
considering adopting our paradigm change: 'describing instead of programming,'
which anticipates the general trend that will clearly become a reality in the
coming years," said Breogán Gonda, ARTech's president.
In addition, Reginaldo José Schollemberg, director of ISO
Enterprise Informática Ltda, said that "people who attended the II GeneXus
Meeting in Brazil expecting just a technical event were surprised. We had the
opportunity to participate in a technical event that presented a vision of the
technological future, which is realistic and compatible with our needs, concerns
and doubts. This shows us how ARTech tunes in with our everyday activities and
with the latest technological concepts. That's why GeneXus is a tool that
unifies technologies, preserves the company's knowledge and enables portability
and environment diversity." "But most importantly, it gives us the possibility
of becoming GeneXus experts, knowing that ARTech and its specialists in other
technologies will make us experts in our business and not just general
connoisseurs of technology," added Schollemberg.
Around 400 individuals attended the Meeting at the Gran
Meliá WTC Sao Paulo on October 7. During the meeting, the new features of the
upcoming version of GeneXus were presented and enthusiastically welcomed by the
software houses and companies in Brazil. "I was very impressed by the potential
of the new GeneXus version. The new features on object orientation, patterns and
internationalization will have a great impact on my work," pointed out Marcelo
Blank, of Blank Advanced Programming.
