Hi <Name>,

I would like your permission to attend the GeekWire Cloud Summit, June 5 in Bellevue, WA. An independent technical conference, this event is a fantastic opportunity to deepen my technical skills and help our company’s adoption of cloud technologies, and it’s also a great value. The conference features technical presentations from companies like Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, Google, Chef, Slack, Zulily, Icertis and more.

At the GeekWire Cloud Summit, I will:

  • Learn from industry leaders on the main stage as well as attend deep technical sessions on Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning, DevOps, Cloud Migration and more.
  • Connect with industry leaders, engineers, developers, CIOs, CTOs and learn best practices from technical teams at other organizations.
  • Gain valuable knowledge about a variety of new cloud platforms that I can bring back to the team.

There aren’t many cloud computing conferences that are produced outside of the cloud vendors themselves, and the GeekWire Cloud Summit is a great value. A pass costs only $349 and group discounts are available if you think this event would benefit other members of our team as well.

More details about the GeekWire Cloud Summit are available at geekwire.com/cloudsummit. Thank you for considering my request to attend this event.

Regards,
