Location
Prior to 2020, DevTernity took place in the The National Library of Latvia. Opening and closing keynotes were presented in the Hall Ziedonis[permanent dead link].
Speakers
The conference applied a mixed approach to program development – direct invitation and a public Call For Papers (CFP), but in recent years switched to an invite-only model. All in-person speakers received accommodation costs and traveling expenses within Europe.
Controversy
In November 2023, it was found out that DevTernity has been advertising using fake speaker profiles. [4]
