In this week, GPower has attended the European Certified LabVIEW Architect (CLA) Summit. An event that brings together some of the world’s best NI LabVIEW programmers to discuss new features, architectures, and network with other CLAs and members of National Instruments (NI).
A Mecca for LabVIEW Developers
Every year, NI hosts the CLA Summit in the United States and Europe. This year, the European event, which can be described as a mecca for LabVIEW developers, has been held in Krakow from April 2-4, 2019.
In order to attend the event, an active CLA certification is required, which is the final step in the three-part LabVIEW certification process:
The Place to Be for LabVIEW Experts
Based on the information above, the event is only for a small group of LabVIEW experts, which usually results in an intimate atmosphere with the possibility of small group discussions and one-on-one meetings at the highest level. As an example, Steen Secher Schmidt and Jens Christian Andersen encountered for instance Jeff Kodosky, who is known as “the Father of LabVIEW” (see top photo).

While Steen and Jens Christian were the only GPower representatives this year, we expect that more developers will attend next year’s event, as we plan to educate more CLAs in the near future.
