Convince Your Boss

Dear {Name},

I’d like to attend KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America taking place November 10-13, in Atlanta, Georgia. I’ve researched many conferences and this is THE conference for gathering developers, IT professionals, and C-level leaders across the ecosystem to share learnings, highlight innovation and discuss the future of cloud native computing.

Over 10,000 of the most talented individuals in the industry are expected to gather together in person for this event making it a great place to network with industry professionals and learn from the top cloud native experts.

Here is some data from KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2024 to give you an idea of who attends and why:

• For 50% of attendees, this was their first KubeCon making it a great place for newcomers to the cloud native community to learn.
• The top two reasons that people attended KubeCon + CloudNativeCon were for networking and meeting others in the industry and career growth, training, and advancement.
• 26% of attendees were in DevOps / SRE / SysAdmin roles, 19% developers, and more than 63% in technical positions overall.

To get a feel for what the conference is all about, check out the North America 2024 transparency report.

Here’s how I envision my attendance at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America 2025 strengthening our company:

• KubeCon + CloudNativeCon North America offers 300+ sessions including technical sessions, deep-dives, case studies, and more. Attending these sessions will allow me to build my knowledge on best practices and new trends in the rapidly evolving cloud native ecosystem.
• The “hallway track” at the event will allow me to meet technology and business leaders to collaborate on the technological challenges and implementations we’re working on while creating strategic partnerships that will benefit our company.
• This is the premier vendor-neutral cloud native event that brings together the industry’s most respected experts and key maintainers behind the most popular projects in the cloud native ecosystem. This will allow me to gain insight into the roadmap of these projects and how we can utilize them in our software stack.

Learn more about the conference and view last year’s keynotes and other videos.

If I register before May 6 the fee is only $999 USD for a KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Only pass or $1,199 USD for an All-Access pass. Included in the registration fee is access to all keynotes and sessions, sponsor showcase, hallway track and lounges. Breaks, lunch, and an evening networking reception is also included.

I would be happy to write a post-conference report and share with other members of the team what I’ve learned and how we can implement these cloud native tools and techniques into our business strategy.

Thanks,

{Your Name}
