This year&amp;rsquo;s &lt;a href="http://www.pass.org/summit/2017/Sessions/ConferenceSessions.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;sessions&lt;/a&gt; seem to be pretty exciting.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;If you cannot attend this year they have a &lt;a href="http://www.pass.org/summit/2017/Home.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;live stream&lt;/a&gt; of some of the sessions and the key notes.&lt;/p&gt;&#10;&lt;p&gt;As one could imagine Microsoft has a huge presence here - its an association of their software after all, but the other sponsors also have had quite a presence in the past. Sometimes I feel like one of the main reasons to go is just to chat with sponsor booths because they typically have products that you &lt;em&gt;don&amp;rsquo;t&lt;/em&gt; see in your day to day. Even the other big players in cloud services like Google and Amazon Web Services are sponsors this year for the &lt;a href="http://www.pass.org/summit/2017/Home.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;2017 PASS Summit&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
