Subject: <Attending Oracle OpenWorld 2016>
I’d like to get your approval to attend Oracle OpenWorld this September 18-22, 2016 in San Francisco. There’s no other conference where I’ll have the opportunity to learn the key information I need to get the most out of our current (and future) Oracle products and technologies. I’ll have access to experts from around the world—customers, partners, and Oracle—so I can grow my skills and increase our productivity.
I’ll be able to choose from more than 2,500 sessions, tailoring my schedule to get exactly the information I need. For example, I plan to focus on:
- < Product or technology supporting (name the project) >
- < Product or technology supporting (name the project) >
- < Product or technology supporting (name the project) >
In addition to sessions, I’ll be able to check out hundreds of Oracle partners, Oracle technology demos run by the experts who helped build the products, and get hands-on in labs where we can dig into the details.
Here’s what a few of last year’s attendees said about their experience:
- “Everybody is here. You get to meet face to face with a lot of different partners and customers. It has an incredible energy level.”
- “It’s kind of a must do. If you’re in this business, you have to be here.”
- “Having all the top Oracle technology experts together in one place gives an unparalleled opportunity to connect, discuss, challenge, and learn.”
- “Nowhere is it possible to communicate and collaborate so intensively with users and developers as at Oracle OpenWorld.”
- “Wow! The best parts were coming across ex-colleagues, bumping into someone I had not seen for many years, interacting with industry leaders both on- and off-hours—I was literally making connections all along.”
- “Everything Oracle concentrated in one place. It gives me the opportunity to investigate the wide variety of Oracle products we have implemented.”
- “Hands-on labs and speaking directly with product managers was very useful.”
- “It provided face-to-face contact with peer professionals using similar technologies. Exactly what our company needed.”
