Hi, my name is Kamil Kalimullin, I am an IT entrepreneur and the founder of AdvantShop. In 2012, my friends and I decided to make an event for IT specialists in Ulyanovsk to share experiences and bring the community together. Since then, we have been holding “Stachka” almost every year, now it is one of the largest conferences in Russia.
In 2024, the conference was already held in Ulyanovsk and gathered more than 2,800 participants. We are planning the second event in St. Petersburg. The “Stachka” brings together IT company executives and owners, developers, marketers, designers and startup founders, and more than 60% of the conference participants are specialists with more than 5 years of experience in the industry.
“Stachka” is a marketplace in the world of conferences. In two days, participants will receive information on many stages of product creation: from the conception of an idea, its implementation and resource provision to sales and marketing.
The Stachki program: reports, activities and recreation
The conference has 5 main areas: development, design and content, marketing, startups and technologies, management. Within each area there are sections (there are more than 50 of them), and within the sections there are reports.
There is no need to worry about the quality of the content, because each section is supervised by highly experienced specialists — program experts of the section. In total, there will be more than 200 reports. The bad news: you won’t be able to physically attend all of them, but videos and presentations of the speakers will be available after the event.
There are also additional educational formats: workshops, round tables, masterminds, game exhibitions, project pitches. And you can't do without an afterparty.
