International Conference on Computing & Mission
Europe

ICCM-Europe 2021 has taken place in February
as an interactive Virtual Conference.
We have not decided on a date or place for the 2022
conference yet.

Welcome to ICCM‑Europe!

ICCM-Europe is an annual conference uniquely designed for techie missionaries or missions-minded techies. We gather for a unique experience of spiritual fellowship, information sharing and vision renewal.

Registration Ends: 13 January, 2020

I count it a privilege to be part of ICCM-Europe. God is moving people.

Timotheus

A great time of sharing and understanding how others work in the Christian area. Time of building relationships and understanding what Jesus means to others in their daily life.

Simon

It has been a source of encouragement, camaraderie, and information.

It was for me a refreshing time getting some break FROM the office AND getting at the same time some encouragement for the work AT the office. 🙂

A very valuable environment to discover new ideas, be encouraged, build new relationships with colleagues working in the same area.

Dominique

Wycliffe

ICCM-Europe is a time where I connect with other people who can understand the life I lead, cross-culturally, spiritually, and in the work I do.

Sometimes I come away with a tool, a technique, or a scripture passage that really changes my work and ministry, but I always come away encouraged in my walk with God and in my efforts to serve Him with my abilities.

Reach Beyond

ICCM-Europe is a chance to be refreshed, encouraged, convicted, and challenged.

Workshops 2021

BOFs

Birds of a Feather (BOF) Sessions

There are a lot of technical and management subjects that need attention, but not all of these can be planned as a workshop. Birds Of a Feather, or BOF sessions, bring people with similar interests together to meet and discuss these topics. The topics are agreed by the attendees before this virtual conference and then the session times and locations are published. After registration we will post a link to join in with BOF voting.

English Idiom: Birds of a feather flock together.
Explanation: Just as bird species flock together, people with similar interests tend to congregate with one another.

Pre-Conference Workshops

This virtual conference will not have a pre conference workship this year.

If you think even this Virtual conference does need a pre-conference hackathon or workshop let us know and we can work together on creating such an addition to the program. For now the EuroPrep team has not planned any pre-conference virtual activities.
