VOLTAR
The beginning of the quarter is always a good time to plan your participation in conferences or other industry events in your calendar. I try to participate regularly in such events, because they are undoubtedly a great source of knowledge and networking.
In this article, I will share with you my short list of the most -promising technology conferences in the third quarter. But first, I would like to explain why – from my perspective – it is worth participating in such events.
I will give you a simple example. In 2019, I took part in three tech conferences. I planned more, but unfortunately, my time did not allow for this. However, I have achieved my goals. I really wanted to get to know inspiring people and companies and have a chance to discover new ideas. My goals are done. I am convinced that even the best-written article can’t replace a live meeting with people who have achieved success in life and have many interesting things to share. In addition, participating in these industry conferences is an excellent opportunity to expand your networking. Contacts are a very important thing, right?
All right. That was my brief introduction. Now it’s time for me to share with you my short list of the five best and most interesting tech events in Q3 2019.
