Registration Confirmation

Registration will be confirmed by e-mail. You'll receive a message as soon as payment has been received and your registration has been processed.

A more comprehensive e-mail message will be sent closer to the conference start date asking you to log into the registration system and choose the sessions you are interested in attending.  This information is for planning purposes only and will not restrict you from changing your sessions on-site.

Speakers & Sessions

The speakers listed on this Web site are leading professionals in their respective fields. Should a speaker be unable to attend the conference, all efforts will be made to replace him or her with one of comparable experience and qualifications.

We are constantly working on improving the quality of our conference products. If the opportunity arises we may add conference sessions and workshops to the posted line-up to enhance the schedule and provide you a better product.

Attendee Networking Forum
Network with your peers before the conference begins. Check the "Attendee Networking Forum" box when you register and we'll send you an e-mail with attendee contact information about a week before the event. It's a great way to start networking before you arrive in San Francisco.

Key Deadlines & Registration Policies

Early Bird Deadline
We encourage early registrations and will even discount the package you choose if you sign up by this date. Our conferences do sell out, and registering in advance helps ensure your spot. The Super Early Bird deadline for VSLive! San Francisco is January 30, 2008; the Early Bird deadline is March 14, 2008.

Transfers, Cancellation and Refunds
You may transfer your conference registration to another person within your organization at any time by notifying us in writing. If you must cancel, please notify the conference registrar in writing by the Early Bird deadline, March 14, 2008. You will receive a refund for the package you chose, less a $250 cancellation fee.

Cancellations made after the Early Bird deadline as well as "no-shows" are liable for the full registration fee.

In the event that the conference is cancelled by Redmond Media Group, registration fees only will be refunded. Cancellations of travel reservations and hotel reservations made directly with the hotel are the responsibility of the attendee.

Hotel Cancellation
If you are unable to attend for any reason, you are responsible for canceling your own room reservations directly with the hotel at least 72 hours in advance of check-in, or you will be subject to penalties and fees by the hotel.
