Iverson College

Iverson College hosts residential events for array programmers and those interested in vector programming languages.

We met last in 2024 back at our original venue, Trinity Hall in Cambridge.

This year we return to Milden Hall in Suffolk, 6–10 September, with DefconQ for a q-only event.

2026 – DefconQ at Iverson College

We shall kick-start a public kdb module repository.

As always, we will be a mix of veterans and juniors, sharing experience and good workflows.

Bring your laptop. We’ll identify and prioritise the kdb modules the community needs for a prosperous future. And we’ll start implementing them.

To keep this affordable to free lances, accommodation is hostel-level – but the meals and the company will be memorable!
