This is the main event, and this year we have even more space, we have expanded 
from 9 tracks to 11, and we will be introducing Break Out sessions and the Deep 
Knowledge track will now span both days. We are working to expand the depth and 
breath of content, so if you have something up your sleeve you want to present,
