Our format is a little different this year…

Typically at a conference you will hear from a presenter, and if you are lucky, you might get an opportunity to ask a question at the end.

This year we are having breakout sessions after each block of speakers. This is where you will have an opportunity to speak directly to our presenters, dive deeper on their topic, and hang out with other attendees who are interested in the same topic.

These breakout sessions are free-form so you can stay with one presenter, move between several presenters, or just chill out and network with other attendees.
