Tech Conference/Events

---

Random question. If you could suggest ONE tech conference or event to attend, which would you recommend? (for an intermediate level person)

Hey Matthew,

I believe this is a great tech conference if I were to choose one to attend:

However, others might say DEFCON, Blackhat, Microsoft Conferences, CompTIA shows.

@matthew-montgomery,

What are you interested in. It really does depend on whether or not you're interested in gear? are you wanting to learn new technology or trying to up your certifications? This is will help you decide what conference you want to attend.

The big one that is coming up near here (Orlando) is Microsoft Ignite. There's also Cisco Live. There's Apples WWDC.

Thank you Wes and Ronnie. I am mostly looking for events that could help with my job (network operations) and/or my certifications. I like the ones that you both have mentioned. I have heard of most of them, but some I have not. (Microsoft Ignite, WWDC) I will search out and see which ones would fit best. I searched for tech events in google and was able to pull up some, but was wondering, do you have a favorite place to check for events?

Again, Thanks for your help!

@matthew-montgomery

Usually I get emails about them now. If you visit some of the technology sites like Microsoft or Cisco, they normally have a link to events they're hosting then a place to sign up for email notifications for example.

Thank you
