For the third year in a row we will set up a strong C++ track at the NDC conference in Oslo, June 6-10.
At NDC Oslo the typical crowd of 2000+ developers can choose from 9-10 parallel tracks over 3 long days (June 8-10). One of these tracks will be about C++, but there will be tracks on embedded programming, security and IoT just to mention a few. There are also many preconference 2-day tutorials/workshops (June 6-7) and several of these will be on C++ and C (stay tuned).
We have already signed up several solid C++ speakers. Anthony Williams, Mark Isaacson, Hubert Matthews, Dan Saks, Andrei Alexandrescu, will be there. Will you? We have a few more slots available. In particular we are looking for C++ gurus based in Europe. Feel free to also contact Olve Maudal directly if you are interested.
If you are curious about the NDC conference please take a look at the humorous promo video for last years event.

C++Now 2016 will be held in Aspen, May 9–14, 2016.
From the invitation:
Building upon the resounding success of previous BoostCon and C++Now conferences, C++Now 2016 will present leading speakers from the whole C++ community.
The C++Now Conference is dedicated to discussion and education about C++, an open and free language and standard. Our Conference will focus on discussion and education about open source software usage and developments in the C++ developer and user community. To reflect the breadth of the C++ and Boost communities, the conference includes sessions aimed at three constituencies: C++ and Boost end-users, hard-core library and tool developers, and researchers pushing the boundaries of computation. The program fosters interaction and engagement within and across those groups, with an emphasis on discussion.
As a multi-paradigm language, C++ is a melting pot with the most compelling ideas from other programming communities blending in powerful ways. Historically, some of the most popular sessions at C++Now have highlighted these concepts, from DSLs to functional programming to transactional memory and more. Bring your C#, Python, Ruby or Haskell influences to bear in an environment that will broaden their exposure.At C++Now 2016 we would like to focus on the now established C++11 and C++14 standards and how those standards shape C++’s future. However, by no means is this intended to restrict the topics of proposals we hope to see. Any other topic related to C++, as described below, is suitable for submission.
This year's window for submitting is shorter than normal. Submissions must be in by January 29th, less than four weeks away.

On November 18th 2015, for the third year in a row, we had a C++ day in Spain. Our local event using::std cpp 2015 starts to consolidate as an annual event for the Spanish C++ community. Each Fall more than 100 developers join some academics and students to exchange experiences about using C++.
My full English language trip report can be found here:
Trip report: using std::cpp 2015
DISCLAIMER: Please, note that all talks where given in Spanish. We will be publishing the slides and videos in the next days. However, we feel that this activity is of interest for a wider audience...
