We Will Sell Out

Defrag’s early bird registration prices end this Friday night, and we will sell out.

We’re capping registration at 325 this year. The reason is simple: the absolute most important aspect of Defrag is the intimacy and quality of conversation. Last year’s Defrag was getting big enough that I really felt like capping this year was the right thing to do for the Defrag community. If you’re playing along at home, that means that a) we’re knowingly reducing the size of the conference and b) our attendee’s experience and interaction is the single most important thing about Defrag.

In the context of that decision, I began looking at how registrations for this year’s Defrag are comparing to past year’s. In a word: blow-out. Registrations are running WAY (think stunningly way) ahead of pace, and as I said earlier: we will sell out. If you’ve never been to a Defrag, know this: the show is run by myself and my amazing wife, Kim, and you will not find a better experience out there. If you’ve been to a past Defrag, know this: this year is going to make all other year’s look boring by comparison. Either way, do yourself, your career and your business a favor, and get registered for Defrag.

Confirmed keynote speakers for this year’s event now include:

Paul Kedrosky, Kauffman Foundation
Roger Ehrenberg, IA Ventures
James Altucher, The Altucher Confidential
Robert Stephens, CTO, Best Buy
Adrian Cockcroft, Cloud Architect, Netflix
Tim Bray, Google
Phil Weiser, Dean, CU Law School
Hal Stern, CTO’s Office, Juniper Networks
Lili Cheng, Microsoft R&D
Jeff Lawson, Twilio
Wendy Lea, Get Satisfaction
Pete Warden
Dave Gutelius, Chief Scientist, Jive Software
Tim Young, Socialcast
TA McCann, Gist
Duncan Watts, Author, “Everything is Obvious *Once You Know The Answer”
Sam Arbeson, Kauffman Foundation
Brad Feld, Foundry Group

 

I know that sometimes all of my Defrag promotion sounds like over-the-top hyperbole, but I really mean what I say about this year.

 

I hope you’ll join us — just don’t wait too long to make that decision.
