SEF2024, held over two days from September 6 to 7, is a software (SW) education festival. Now in its 8th edition, SEF2024 focuses on software and artificial intelligence (AI) education. Both online and offline, various participants including IT industry experts such as developers and data analysts, as well as non-major beginners and educators, gather to share concerns and know-how about software education.

About 10 lectures are offered on topics recently gaining attention in the IT industry, such as generative AI and AI ethics. Experts in AI and SW fields, including Kim Yong-beom, Head of Technology at Naver Search US, Park Tae-woong, Chairman of Hanbit Media, and Lee Su-in, CEO of Enuma, will participate as speakers.

For the first time this year, an offline popup where participants can experience all SW and AI education programs of Naver Connect Foundation, such as Juni School, Entry, and Boost Camp, will be introduced. Under the concept of 'The World Inside the Laptop,' this popup event will also feature missions for participants to complete and receive special Connect Foundation goods as rewards.

He added, "As a leading representative in innovative SW education, Connect Foundation will continue active efforts to ensure that anyone can have opportunities to learn about future technologies."
