Yesterday we have had the first national Elixir Conference in Brazil: Elixir Brasil 2018. It was a one day conference in São Paulo.
We have had 16 talks. José Valim gave a talk on Hughes Driven Development. There were talks about Open Source code, the Scientific Method applied to Software Engineering, Elm, and other subjects.
The event site is this one (in Portuguese):

The talks were recorded and some of them are already here (also in Portuguese):

You can still find some pictures by searching #ElixirNaLW or #elixirbrasil on Twitter: x.com or even Instagram/Facebook.
The admission was free and I believe there were more than 100 participants. It was regarded by the organizers as a success and they said they are going to organize another national Elixir event in the second semester and in a larger venue.
