"This was my seventh TUG CONNECTS conference, and each one was better than the last. This year was no exception, because of the countless networking opportunities it offered and the exciting prospects of emerging technologies.
From engaging conversations with industry experts to meaningful connections with peers, the event provided a platform for forging relationships and discovering tools to help me become more efficient throughout my professional journey. I can say it's about more than acquiring knowledge or skills—it's about being part a community of like-minded individuals committed to driving positive change in the industry.
The connections forged during previous years at the event have proven to be invaluable assets to me. They fuel discussions that continue throughout the year and form friendships that go beyond industry.
I am already excited about attending TUG Connects 2026 in Nashville....See you there!
"In the midst of our CSD migration, we leveraged the knowledge and experience of those who have already made the leap. The breakout sessions were essential in understanding CSD's benefits and challenges."
I always return with new ideas, some of which we can implement immediately to improve our bottom line. And the networking is invaluable.
