We get a lot of invites for NinjaOne to sponsor IT conferences, and we turn down more than we say yes to. But when we heard about #RejectionCon we were immediately in. Here's why I love this event and why you should absolutely attend next week: - TRULY DEMOCRATIZED: We all know big industry conferences have an agenda when they put together their agendas. That's nothing nefarious, it's typically just the nature of the beast. The result, though? Every year there are a TON of great speakers and talks that get left out. Not because of they aren't good or important, but simply because the speakers aren't well-known, they aren't bringing sponsorship $, and/or they don't perfectly fit the talk track. #RejectionCon is giving these speakers and their talks a chance to shine. - NEW VOICES: If you've gone to many IT conferences you've likely become used to seeing the same speakers and topics over and over. #RejectionCon provides a much-needed opportunity for new speakers to get critical at-bats. Without that, we risk our industry becoming even more of an echo chamber that isn't making room for diversity and fresh takes. - INSIGHTFUL, ACTIONABLE CONTENT: The premise is great, but the topics themselves look like they're truly going to deliver. From "How I Sold My Company for 16X EBITDA" to "A PR 101 Lesson in IT Crisis Communications" to "How to Be a Manager That Doesn't Suck." See the full lineup here: https://lnkd.in/gqzTA4m8 - SUPPORTING AN AMAZING CAUSE: #RejectionCon is "pay-what-you-can" to register, and every single dollar is going to support the Rural Technology Fund, which provides resources, scholarships, and assistive tech devices to rural students. I talk about all this and more with my buddy and organizer of the event Wes Spencer here: https://lnkd.in/gkPhTVK9
