What is SpiceWorld? 

For more than fifteen years, IT pros have been visiting the Spiceworks Community to network with peers, connect with tech vendors, and discuss everyday life as an IT pro. The SpiceWorld conference allows this virtual world to transcend into the real world. SpiceWorld offers a wealth of knowledge and shared understanding for all IT professionals -- not just those at large corporations. Sessions like "How to Justify the Cybersecurity Budget You Deserve" and "Taking the Next Step: Becoming an IT Leader" are designed to help those new to the industry and veterans sharpen their skills so they can level up their IT game no matter where they are on the path. 

Expert-led sessions will allow attendees to learn from some of the best in the business on the latest trends on hot technology topics like artificial intelligence (AI), the cloud, and cybersecurity. Douglas Rushkoff, whom MIT named one of the world's 10 most influential thinkers, will present a keynote on how IT pros can help everyone cope with technology's rapid changes. Tarah Wheeler, a leading digital security veteran, will give her keynote on how AI is changing the cybersecurity world.

Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting your tech journey, SpiceWorld 2024 has something for you. Workshops will provide a hands-on learning experience, the expo hall will allow attendees to meet vendors and network with peers, and the evening events will allow everyone to unwind with some of Austin's best entertainment.
