Welcome to a Transformed ProgressNEXT

ProgressNEXT, the premier event for Progress Partners, is taking place soon in Las Vegas. This event will be like no other before it, and we’re so excited to share the latest technology, expand our community and help you learn how it can help you improve your business.

This year’s ProgressNEXT for Partners Conference is going to be one of the largest global partner-only conferences we’ve had, with a record number of attendees coming for the first time. I’m incredibly excited to meet both familiar and new faces as we welcome our Partners to Las Vegas. We’re very proud of our fantastic community, but that’s only one reason this year’s NEXT will be like no other.

This conference is about you, our Partners, and you will be an essential part of this event. While there will certainly be dynamic keynotes designed to inspire—including the last word from CEO Phil Pead—the days are dominated by interactive and hands-on sessions. Unlike many conferences, you’ll choose from an array of parallel workshops, spending your time on what interests you.

Across these sessions you’ll get to experience all of our products and gain a sense of how you can use them in your business. Not only that, but we’ll challenge you to think outside of the box when it comes to new technologies like the Internet of Things, mobility, social media and analytics. We’re counting on you to challenge us too, and put us to the test!

Progress has been on quite a journey in recent years. The Progress family has grown, and both longstanding and newer Partners may be wondering what’s coming next. I’m delighted to share more details about how bright the future will be as we continue down the path we’ve set out on over the years to come.

So be prepared for a good time and to have your experience expanded. Get to know Partners from other parts of the world and challenge yourself to learn new things. Network, have fun and take something amazing home with you. These are not typical times in your business, and this is not your typical conference.

I hope you’ll join us on our journey as we help you develop your community and take the next steps in your business, and I can’t wait to see many of you at ProgressNEXT.
