Garmin Developer Summit: What You Need to Know

For the past three years, we have hosted the Connect IQTm Developer Summit at Garmin headquarters. The event brings together developers and Garmin partners from around the world for three days of Connect IQ announcements, networking, Kansas City barbecue, marathons and, of course, a gift box like no other. This year, we have an important announcement: it’s evolving.

Here’s the deal: What we’ve learned over the past few years is that you are all wonderful people. Also, the ANT+ alliance members are wonderful, as are our Connect partners and our makers. Honestly, we think you should all meet each other.

With that spirit in mind, this year will be the first-ever Garmin Developer Summit. The Garmin Developer Summit will combine Connect IQ, ANT+Tm, Bluetooth® wireless technology, Garmin Connect API and all our developer programs. It will be a tremendous opportunity to gain knowledge from industry experts and make impactful connections that can help grow your business.

To answer some of your questions:

  • It’s what you love about previous Summits — and more
  • Yes, there will still be barbecue
  • Yes, there will still be a marathon
  • Yes, the gift box will still be amazing

GDS2020 will be October 14-16, 2020, at Garmin’s headquarters in Kansas City. We will be sending out additional details soon, so keep watching this forum or subscribe to our newsletter to learn more.
