RubyKaigi is the authoritative international conference on the Ruby programming language, attracting Ruby committers and Ruby programmers from around the world to Japan, the birthplace of Ruby.

Held nearly every year since 2006, RubyKaigi is a truly international event. Last year's 3-day event -- the first to include English as an official language -- welcomed over 1500 participants.

The eighth in this series of events, RubyKaigi 2014 will take place over 3 days between September 18th and September 20th, featuring talks by Yukihiro Matsumoto, Koichi Sasada and many other famous Rubyists.
