GrUSP was born in 2003 as a PHP developer community, and is today the point of reference in Italy for the best practices of web development. We organize more than fifteen events every year, about programming languages, frameworks, best practices, and DevOps methodologies.
One of our goals is to create accessible and welcoming events where people from different backgrounds can meet, share knowledge and feel at home, creating a diverse and inclusive community. To achieve this goal, we have set up a fund to which anyone can contribute in different ways.
Apropos Srl supports us from a logistical and administrative point of view.
