Josh Holtz founded Deep Dish Swift in September of 2022 out of a deep love for developer conferences.
Deep Dish Swift is hosting its second conference in Chicago in 2024. The conference aims to bring together developers of all experience levels and backgrounds in an inclusive environment to share knowledge and experience from a diverse set of speakers.
This community is amazing and we should want nothing more than to bring more people into it. This year, we are opening up an option for attendees to donate to the scholarship fund to do just that! Any extra amount added to your ticket will go to scholarships.
Donations are not required but appreciated and we'll show you our gratitude!
Our goal is to offer at least 10 scholarships this year. Reach out to team@deepdishswift.com with any questions!
Deep Dish Swift is being held at Loews Chicago O'Hare Hotel in Rosemont, IL.
The venue's hotel is now fully book. We can recommend the follow nearby hotels to stay at:
It's easily accessible to attendees whether traveling by plane, train, or automobile. Loews offers a conference space that will give attendees a comfortable room to listen to speakers and a foyer to network and talk to our amazing sponsors.
The venue also is within walking distance of plenty of restaurants, the Rosemont entertainment district, and the Fashion Outlets of Chicago. There is also an Uber-able casino if you are into that kind of activity!
Loews is the perfect venue again for Deep Dish Swift's second year.
Note: Attendees will receive information on how to book rooms within the Deep Dish Swift block to receive a lower room rate.
The wonderful people opening and closing the greatest pizza show on Earth.
Indie developers giving motivational talks about how to develop and grow an indie app.
Swift developers giving talks on all things Swift and iOS development from beginner to advanced topics.
Stewart couldn't make it but he did record his talk for us to enjoy on YouTube! It will be released soon...
Charlie Chapman will be interviewing a special guest, Sean Allen, live on stage for the Launched podcast!
James Dempsey and the Breakpoints will be rocking the stage with some of their greatest hits! Sit back, relax, and sing along if you know them.
