But there’s more to do than just soaking up a few words of wisdom:[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][x_feature_list][x_feature_box title=”Get Answers to Your Burning Questions” title_color=”” text_color=”” graphic=”numbers” graphic_size=”60px” graphic_shape=”circle” graphic_color=”#ffffff” graphic_bg_color=”hsl(302, 28%, 45%)” align_h=”left” align_v=”top” side_graphic_spacing=”20px” max_width=”none” child=”true” connector_width=”1px” connector_style=”dashed” connector_color=”#272727″]Aside from catching this year’s keynote address from Ben and Jerry’s co-founder, Jerry Greenfield, you’ll have a chance to participate in discussions and attend Q&A panels hosted by local industry legends, so you can ask questions and work through real problems you’ve encountered in the workplace.
To make it easy to find the sessions that are most relevant to you, we’ve broken everything up into three tracks: one for Developers, another for Innovators, and a track for Entrepreneurs.

Nothing stuffy—we promise! Kick back at TAI TechBrew, practice your elevator speech while you climb a 20-ft. rock wall, or get some work done during our Coworking Crawl.
