[Haskell-cafe] Functional Programming in Industry

[Jeroen Janssen]

Dear all,

I am pleased to announce to you that, on the occasion of BelHac, the first Belgian Haskell Hackathon from 5-7 Nov 2010, the Ghent Functional Programming Group is organizing a symposium on "Functional Programming in Industry", to which you are all cordially invited. These talks will be held on Friday, November 5th at 17:00 in the Jozef Plateauzaal in the Plateau building of Ghent University (Jozef Plateaustraat 22, 9000 Gent). The program is as follows:

- Duncan Coutts* (Well-Typed, http://www.well-typed.com/, BelHac sponsor) who will be talking on how Well-Typed are providing consultancy services for Haskell, a pure functional programming language.
- Romain Slootmaekers (Incubaid, http://www.incubaid.com, BelHac sponsor) who will be talking on the use of functional programming in Incubaid, a company based in the Ghent area.
- Don Stewart (Galois, http://www.galois.com) who will be talking on how Galois is using Haskell in many of their projects, including government contracts.

The talks will be followed by a reception to which all attendees are cordially invited.

* Actual speaker has yet to be confirmed, but the talk will take place.

Kind Regards,
The GhentFPG Organizing Committee.
