CAMBRIDGE, MA– May 10, 2018 – Quickbase, a leader in no-code application development platforms, today announced EMPOWER 2018, its fourth annual user conference aimed at arming customers and partners with the resources they need to turn their ideas into custom business apps. The conference, which will take place in Austin, Texas, from June 4-7, will bring together 800 attendees from both business and IT functions, and feature keynotes by digital transformation strategist and speaker Greg Verdino, and Quickbase executives Rick Willett (CEO) and Jay Jamison (SVP of Strategy and Product Management).
The conference will have nearly 50 breakout sessions, including a number where QuickBase customers will share their success stories using the company’s platform to save time, automate processes and manage projects. These talks include representatives from Sprint, Homesquare, Harvard Business School and CCI Systems, among others. Other sessions will cover new product features and best practices.
“As more organizations of all types and sizes adopt our platform to run major business processes, we’re expecting the largest EMPOWER event ever,” said Jamison. “There is no better place for Quickbase customers to get inspired and energized by their peers and to learn about significant new offerings we will be announcing and sharing at the event.”
"Digital technologies are transforming businesses of all sizes in every industry — and those who fail to evolve risk being left behind," said Verdino, who is keynoting the conference. "Attendees at EMPOWER2018 are some of the most forward thinking companies in America, and I'm looking forward to sharing inspiration on how they can get even more out of their digital investments at the show."
EMPOWER 2018 will also feature a pre-conference “App-a-Thon” app building challenge with cash prizes, an on-site training course, three networking events including one at Austin staple Stubb’s BBQ and a customer awards ceremony.
