I attended the last CodeControl Summit and it was a great event filled with many valuable workshops, but most importantly with great people! I’m sure the next event organised by these guys will be amazing as well!
![Alessandro Pedori Headshot](https://www.freelanceunlocked.com/hubfs/Alessandro%20Pedori%20Headshot.jpg)
Alessandro Pedori
CTO at Enterprise Consulting
As freelancers, we generally work on our own. We join teams on demand and often work remotely, sometimes by choice. It is easy to forget that other people following this path are quite similar to us. The last event CodeControl organized was a great opportunity to meet other individuals with similar passions, experiences, and paths. I was surprised by how much we shared and thoroughly enjoyed it. The team was great, and I will do my best to join their next event!

Seit Jahren besuche ich die Events von Uplink regelmäßig. Uplink hat es geschafft, eine bedeutende Community von Freelancern aufzubauen. Auf den Events trifft man langjährige Bekannte und lernt regelmäßig neue interessante Menschen kennen. Die Projektvermittlung über Uplink hat einwandfrei funktioniert.

Every time there is an Uplink event I always try to attend it as the range of freelance experiences people have is quite different from my own and having this perspective really helps understand, how other people think and work. Uplink events have helped me in expanding professional horizons and building meaningful connections within the freelance community. Meeting folks in person and having real-time chats? That's the good stuff in today's world.

Die Uplink-Community für Softwareentwickler ist einfach klasse! Hier treffe ich auf hochqualifizierte Kollegen, tausche Wissen aus und finde immer wieder neue Inspiration. Die Atmosphäre ist locker, aber gleichzeitig professionell, und das Uplink-Team kümmert sich wirklich gut um die Community. Wenn du in der Softwareentwicklung unterwegs bist und nach einer unterstützenden und inspirierenden Gemeinschaft suchst, kann ich Uplink wärmstens empfehlen!
