Tickets for the 2019 PowerShell + DevOps Summit sold out faster this year than its predecessors by almost exactly a full month. We are all so very excited to see everyone this year at the Meydenbauer in Bellevue, Washington! But as we continue to outpace each year, we also understand that this means that the demand for the content we deliver at Summit is also growing .
One of the early goals of the Summit was to keep the event relatively small to provide a more intimate feel. In doing so, it allows attendees a chance to see familiar faces as they come back every year, and have a chance to interact with the speakers, staff, and members of the PowerShell team. As the event has grown, we’ve been very careful to not lose that feel. So the question then is, what do we do in order to meet the demands of the community, and maintain that small event feel?
