Why This Event

We built this because BCS deserves more real rooms. Three speakers who lead differently, one community that shows up for each other, and a cause that reminds all of us why we do the work in the first place.

Doors close at 122. Sales close August 4 at midnight. Bring a business friend who belongs in the room.
