If you are in the Chicagoland area, or are up for a trip to Chicago, you should check out the CMS Expo coming up the 2nd through the 4th of May, 2011.
What is CMS Expo?
“CMS Expo is a 3-day learning and business conference designed to help content pros get the facts, find the support and make the contacts needed to help them succeed. Hosted by the CMS Association, CMSX delivers timely, relevant and actionable insights to help leaders make informed decisions for business.” – http://cmsx.us/
Where is CMS Expo?
The CMS Expo is being held at the Hilton Orrington Hotel in Evanston, IL
Who is going?
Shaun Walker, Joe Brinkman and myself (Chris Hammond) from DotNetNuke will be presenting sessions, and we will have Richard Dumas along for the ride as well. We have a number of sessions that we are providing, as well as prizes that will be available at our booth. You can see a full listing of our sessions from the DotNetNuke page of the CMS Expo website.
All the DotNetNuke Sessions are on Tuesday May, 3rd, 2011 (except for one from Shaun on Monday the 2nd).
What Is DotNetNuke?
DotNetNuke Core Modules
Extending DotNetNuke
Mobile DNN
Showcasing DotNetNuke
In the last session, Showcasing DotNetNuke, we will have a few DotNetNuke Partners on hand to talk about projects and businesses that have excelled while using DotNetNuke
There will also be an introduction session on Monday the 2nd presented by Shaun Walker
Discount Codes for CMS Expo
If you are interested in attending CMS Expo there are a couple registration options. You can get a day pass, or a three day pass. You can also get $100 off using the discount code DNN100, though I don’t know if that code will get you $100 the day pass, or only the three day pass.
Community Event
On Monday evening CMS Expo is having a meetup night. There will be a DotNetNuke Meetup going on that evening. The meetups are free for the public, so you don’t have to attend CMS Expo to come to that. Word on the street is that the Chicago DotNetNuke User’s Group is going to be cancelling their regularly scheduled first Tuesday night meeting in May in favor of attending the meetup.
Be sure to attend the meetup if nothing else! You must sign up at http://cmsexpo.net/dnn to attend the meetup.
Giveaways
You should see the kickarse DotNetNuke Themed Xbox 360 we’re giving away as well! Here’s a mockup of what it looks like.
See you in Chicago (or Evanston)!
