Samsung announces UK bada developer day

Samsung Electronics, a mobile phone provider, has announced that the latest in a series of bada Developer Days is coming to London.

The event, being held in London on Friday 18 June, is Samsung’s first UK bada developers’ event following the launch of bada software development kit (SDK). The event has been designed to encourage bada application development and assist relevant developers and their communities.

The Developer Day is structured around bada platform introduction, programming samples configured for specific technologies and applications based on bada platform SDK, and a variety of demonstrations using real mobile phones.

The event will also provide overall introductions on ‘Samsung Apps’, which is Samsung’s application store, and Samsung application certification process to help developers understand certification and sale procedures.

Speaking ahead of the event, Simon Stanford, Head of Mobile for Samsung UK & Ireland said: “The bada Developer Day is our first event of this kind and we’d encourage developers from across the country to sign up and join us in London on June 18th. We’re incredibly proud and excited about the possibilities of our bada platform and we’re looking forward to sharing our vision of bada and its applications with developers.”

The Developer Day is one of the first in Europe from Samsung, and is part of a series which will have reached over 20 countries by the end of 2010.
