Presented by Torben Hoffmann — Strategy Advisor at Trifork, former DTU student and DTU dropout. Functional Programming often sparks strong reactions among students. Some find it elegant and powerful; others leave the course wondering: Why does this matter? Is anyone actually using this in industry? And if it’s so good — why isn’t everyone doing it?
This talk aims to answer exactly those questions.
Torben Hoffmann draws on his journey from DTU to industry to show how Functional Programming concepts have allowed to have an entire career without touching OOP. The focus is not on theory, but on relevance, trade-offs, and practical impact.
Topics include:
What are the real benefits of Functional Programming?
How is Functional Programming actually used in industry today?
Why isn’t adoption higher? and when does it not make sense?
