The Best Independent Microsoft Conference Around
More talent, information, learning and networking under one roof at one time for the best value

For more than a decade VSLive! events have set the standard of excellence in developer conferences. Year after year our shows have provided Microsoft developers a forum for discussing the challenges they face and discovering best practices and solutions to these issues.

Why choose conferences? Why choose VSLive!?

Since the first VBITS conference was launched in 1993, many training companies, distance learning centers and copy-cat conference groups have entered the market. But none of them have the depth of experience or ability to deliver the quality events we do. Our long-standing relationship with the top speakers and educators in the world puts us at the top editorially. Our close relationship with Microsoft ensures we have the most up-to-date information on product releases and how you should prepare now for tomorrow’s projects. And our understanding of the market allows us to provide well-rounded community events, putting you, the attendee, in touch with book authors, third-party vendors and suppliers you rely on to get your job done better and faster.

Choose VSLive! for:

• Choice: you’ll get a wide variety of topics to select from (rather than only what is covered in a single course), giving you all the tools you need to take your projects through the next year…and beyond
• Peek into the future: find out about technology that isn't covered in training courses yet; VSLive! is often the forum for Microsoft launches and NDA issues
• Multiple perspectives: you can hear from—and talk to—a variety of industry leaders, including your favorite book authors and the Microsoft development team
• Flexibility in schedule: choose to come for 3 days or stay the full week; we offer packages that are catered to your budget and needs
• Community: our networking opportunities are unparalleled; meet and learn from a wide range of people just like you
