Today we are proud to present you the first speakers for PHPBenelux Conference 2013. We start by announcing our tutorial speakers and in the coming weeks we will start publishing our speakers. The people in the community once again gave us the very hard task to select the tutorials from many quality submissions, and this is what we came up with.

Tutorial sessions for this year's event include a MongoDB workshop (Derick Rethans), Git and Github: Level Up (Ben Straub) and RESTful Services Made Easy with ZF2 (Matthew Weier O'Phinney). You can get your tickets now for these tutorial days (you select the session when you buy the ticket) or just pick up your pass for the rest of the conference at the Early Bird price!

fter three successful conferences earlier this year and last year, the PHPBenelux team is proud to announce the 4th edition of the PHPBenelux Conference. Like last year, the conference will last two full days, starting with a half day tutorial followed by 1.5 days of conference. The conference is on Friday 25th January and Saturday 26th January 2013 in Antwerp, Belgium. Become part of this year's speaker schedule at the PHPBenelux Conference 2013. Each chosen speaker receives a speaker package!

There's two types of sessions - the 60 minute regular sessions and 3 hour tutorials. Suggested topics include "Content Management Systems", "Frameworks", "Best Practices" and "HTML5". The Call for Papers is only open until October 1st so be sure to submit your ideas today!
