DNN Summit is a conference run by the non-profit DNN Association.
The DNN Corp. team returns to Denver in February for DNN Summit 2018. There's still time to book your tickets! I can’t wait for the conference. In this post, I’ll share details of what we have planned.
Sessions
The DNN Summit session schedule features a few presentations from DNN Corp. team members.
Andy Tryba, CEO of DNN Corp., will present the opening keynote on Wednesday, February 7 at 8am. Andy will share details on what DNN Corp. has in store for 2018.
Ash Prasad, our VP of Engineering and Support, will present two sessions.
Ash's first session is titled "How to Harden the Security of Your DNN Website" and takes place on Thursday, February 8 at 9:10am.
According to the Summit website, "Ash will show viewers the tools and techniques he employs to harden the security of DNN websites. If you're managing DNN websites, you'll leave this session with tips you can apply right away."
Ash's second session takes place in the afternoon of February 8, when he presents "DNN's Journey to Microservices" at 1:50pm. Ash will "present you a full picture on how to build real life scalable business applications using Azure technologies." His session will focus mostly on the data aspects of DNN's microservices architecture.
I'll present a session on Thursday, February 8 at 3:20pm titled "How to Write a Great Blog Post." I've written a lot of blog posts. While they haven't all been great, I think I know what makes a great post. Whether you're actively blogging today or hope to start blogging tomorrow, I hope you can join me.

Cocktails and Appetizers on February 7
Join us for cocktails and appetizers at Stout Street Social on Wednesday, February 7, from 7 to 9pm.
Stout Street Social is on the first floor of the Embassy Suites hotel, so you won't need to leave the main building. Everyone with a DNN Summit lanyard will be provided with free drink tickets. We’ll also have appetizers served. Hope to see you there!
Short Video Interviews
I'm planning to capture short video interviews (e.g. 1 to 5 minutes long) detailing your use of DNN. The videos will eventually appear on the DNN website or YouTube channel. Reach out to me if you're interested. Email dennis.shiao@dnnsoftware.com or tweet me at @dshiao.
DNN On The Slopes ❄️
I'll be staying the weekend to participate in "DNN on the Slopes." If you're going as well, let's plan to connect! I'll participate in the snow tubing and will be renting skis for Saturday.
