RIM has opened a support center for mobile developers

A Canadian vendor has opened the BlackBerry Tech Center in the UK – the first technical support center for developers of mobile applications based on BlackBerry 10.

In the center, developers will be able to receive not only consultations from RIM specialists and attend various master classes, but also clarify questions about porting applications to other platforms, be it Android, iOS or Windows Phone.

According to Alec Saunders, Head of Developer Relations, the opening of the first technical support center underscores RIM’s desire to actively interact with the developer community. 

RIM also intends to open similar centers in Silicon Valley, Vancouver and Indonesia.

It is obvious that the company is sincerely trying to regain its former glory by stimulating the development of applications on BB 10. Recall, according to Canalys, according to the results of the second quarter of this year, RIM owns 5.2% of the global smartphone market.
