Web Directions Summit
A conference for the whole team
We increasingly work in agile, cross functional teams. So why should professional development be siloed?
Web Directions Summit is designed for the modern product landscape. It's a one-of-a-kind conference designed for the needs of your entire product team, with three carefully curated tracks–one focused on front end development and engineering, one focused on design, one focussed on product–each bringing together the finest minds in their fields, in an environment designed to ensure you and your team get the most from attending.
Who's it for?
The Product Design Team
Product, UX, IxD, visual, Web, Front End and CX experts, Art Directors, Creative Directors, Experience Leads, Design Leads and Design Researchers should all attend to hear from world leading experts.
The Engineering Team
We've got the whole front end development team covered: front end engineers, JavaScript and Web developers, engineering leads, engineering managers, devops experts, CTOs.
The Product Team
Product Managers and Owners, VPs of Product and CPOs–there's now a track specifically dedicated to the challenges you face at each step of the product life cycle, from ideation to validation, delivery, onboarding and growth.
Leaders and Decision Makers
To round it out, our audience is full of smart decision makers, who know taking the pulse of what's now, and next, is vital in making the right strategic decisions. With prodcut, design and engineering tracks there's mixture of deep dive and high level sessions ensure there's something for you too. Plus there's our brand new people/talent/culture track, with insights, case studies and wisdom from professionals in these areas to help you lead better.
Meanwhile, outside the sessions, you'll find engaging showcases of technology and design to keep you thinking.

About Us
Co-founded and now run by John Allsopp, Web Directions has for over a decade brought together leading developers, engineers, visual, IxD, UX and product designers, Art and Creative Directors, product managers indeed everyone involved in producing web and digital products to learn from one another, and the World's leading experts across this vast field.
We spend our lives thinking about what comes next, keeping up with trends in technology, practices and processes, and filtering the hype, to make sure you don't miss trends that matter, and don't waste time on hype that doesn't.
We promise attending one of our events will leave you significantly better versed in the challenges you face day to day, and in solutions for addressing them.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we're switching things up a bit for 2020. We'll be organising Product, Design, and Code as online conferences, and our annual extravaganza, Web Directions Summit will take place in Sydney as soon as it is practicable in late 2020 or early 2021.
John Allsopp
John Allsopp has been working on the Web for over 20 years. He's been responsible for innovative developer tools such as Style Master, X-Ray and many more. He's spoken at numerous conferences around the World and delivered dozens of workshops in that time as well.
His writing includes two books, including Developing With Web Standards and countless articles and tutorials in print and online publications.
His "A Dao of Web Design" published in 2000 is cited by Ethan Marcotte as a key influence in the development of Responsive Web Design, who's rightly acclaimed article in 2010 begins by quoting John in detail, and by Jeremy Keith as "a manifesto for anyone working on the Web".
Code of Conduct
For over a decade, we've worked hard to create inclusive, fun, inspring and safe events for the Web Industry.
