/Roots (pronounced Slash Roots) aims at fostering a culture of knowledge creation, collaboration and sharing within the Jamaican developer and technology communities. Specifically, innovation through better application of technology, participation in global dialogues, and localisation of developments for the Jamaican context. Implicit in our aim is the creation of a community among various stakeholders within the public, private and civil sectors, as well as academia, local and abroad.
The inaugural event for this group is a developers conference at the old drama theater at UWI on February 24 and 25. We will be releasing more information soon on our website http://slashroots.org
