+			<p>At the very last day of <a href="https://qtcon.org/" target="_blank">QtCon</a> \
&#8210; one of the biggest Qt events in Europe, held at Berlin Convention Center in \
2016 &#8210; a group of three Brazilian KDE contributors started wondering about \
organizing the first Qt conference ever held in Latin America. As a result, from 18th \
to 20th August 2017, <a href="https://br.qtcon.org/2017/" target="_blank">QtCon \
Brazil</a> brought together almost 200 participants from IT industry, universities, \
and governmental entities. The conference happened in São Paulo, the major financial \
hub in Brazil and the headquarters of big corporations, banks, universities and \
research centers. The first day of conference was dedicated to training sessions. \
Sandro Andrade presented a session on "Developing Android Applications with Qt" and \
Cleiton Bueno was responsible for the session on "Developing Embedded Applications \
with Qt" with the valuable support of Toradex, one of the conference's sponsors. The \
training sessions were carried out in two groups of 20 participantes, focused on \
hands-on activities about how to use Qt to power modern embedded and mobile \
applications. The training sessions were heavily demanded by attendees and have been \
totally sold out in only two weeks.</p>  </div>

+				<p>QtCon Brazil 2017 happened with the valuable support of The Qt Company, KDE, \
Stone, Toradex, openSUSE, and JetBrains. The second and third days were devoted to \
keynotes' talks, invited talks from prominent Qt players in Brazil, and community \
talks coming from the call for participation. At Saturday, in the opening session, \
representatives from the sponsors and the organizing committee welcomed all \
participants and provided an overview of QtCon Brazil's goals and motivation, \
followed by a panel about "What's Qt About?". Then, there was a technical session \
about embedded Qt, where Cleiton Bueno talked about "Initializing and Handling Qt \
Applications in Linux" and Sergio Prado talked about "Creating a GNU/Linux \
distribution with Qt support for embedded devices". QtCon Brazil continued after \
