Q: Are you planning on hosting a live event?

A: We are planning the live, in-person event for May 25-27, 2021. Capacity may be limited this year in order to adhere to social distancing protocols (see below for more details), so make sure to secure your tickets as early as possible. As always, we will have a live stream of the conference as well as an edited on-demand digital version available for those who are not able to join us live. This year, we will have an even more robust virtual experience for those attending from afar.
