Workshops

After 2.5 days of being bombarded by ideas, it’s time to step back and take stock.

Optional, informal, interactive and fun. BoS workshops will help you prioritize and focus in order to maximize the value of your investment in attending Business of Software Conference.

Workshops are highly interactive, draw on the content of the conference and help you make sense of how your learning may be applied in your own organization. You will leave with an actionable ‘to do’ list of things to apply in your own company.

We’ve just released Workshop Only Tickets for BoS USA 2019. If you want some BoS goodness, but can’t make the whole of the conference, you can now save your place for a BoS Workshop on Wednesday 18th September.

Read on to find out more about the Workshops, and to book your ticket.

You’ll learn: How to break down a market position into component parts and ensure your positioning is based on your strengths.
