In fact, it is just the normal evolution of the company meetings as we are now located in two distant offices (Madrid and Málaga) and the number of people working in Almira keeps growing (22 people as I write this post) so companies activities grow as well. we need longer meetings to be able to treat all the issues. Meeting started in the morning in CAN offices at Juan Bravo, Madrid (thanks to CAN again for their hospitality). The session agenda was:

  • 10’00 – 10’40 Almira vision. 2008 activities summary. Plans for 2009. (Javier)
  • 10’40 – 11’00 Software process revision. Good practices and company principles. (Juanjo)
  • 11’00 – 11’30 Coffee break
  • 11’30 – 11’50 Product line presentacion including the VoiceCast service (Miguel)
  • 11’50 – 12’30 Product Architecture and development. Software Architecture principles (David)
  • 12’30 – 12’45 Mini coffee break
  • 12’45 – 13’15 Projects presentations
    • Apuestas + Casino. (Eva, Óscar)
    • Todotur. (Víctor)
    • QA group. Organization and functions. (Diego)
  • 13’15 – 13’30 Q&A.

In this last session, I want to remark Gabriel and Daniel interventions. The former gave us the vision of Almira from the downsouth office de Almira. The latter, the vision from his broad entrepreneurial experience.

At 14′30 we were at OKRA restaurant for a cocktail and some drinks… I am going to leave it here, the rest keeps to secrets of Almira and the Madrid night, althought I must say that we really enjoyed it very much. Pics speak for themselves…
