Shedding Some Light

Speaking of getting close, the Geek Gatherings YouTube Channel is closing in on 1000 subscribers and we would love to leap far over this milestone. Please subscribe and check the notification bell so you can be one of the first to learn when we release the videos from last year’s Southwest Fox. The channel has over 60 videos with session content from all the Virtual Fox Fest conferences over the last four years. That is over 75 hours of viewing. Here is a link to a session from 2022:

We have locked in our dates for our 2024 conferences and hope you will save the dates to attend.

Our one-day Virtual Fox Fest 2024 will be Wednesday, May 8, 2024. It still has the same great features everyone loves about VFF: great speakers delivering great sessions, live chatting during presentations, and getting to hang out virtually with new and old friends. This event will feature classic sessions from previous conferences, updated for 2024.

We’re excited to offer you Southwest Fox 2024, a hybrid conference, September 26-29, 2024. You decide whether to come in person or watch online! The in-person event will be held at the Hampton Inn & Suites Phoenix-Scottsdale in Scottsdale, Arizona. The virtual event will use the Ring Central Hopin platform (the same platform we use for Virtual Fox Fest).

Web sites will be updated in the new year. Call for speakers will be announced later in February so get your ideas prepared.

White Light Computing will be a Platinum sponsor for both conferences. CleverFox Backup will be a Gold sponsor for both conferences.

Here are some follow-up notes about Virtual Fox Fest 2022 (October):

- Videos for all presentations are now available on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsLb2rL3ALQW9g5r-qqf_jA/videos) for free to everyone, as our contribution to the VFP community. Be sure to subscribe to our channel.

- If you didn’t attend Virtual Fox Fest and want materials (white papers and sample code) for the presentations, go to https://geekgatherings.com/Registration and “register” for the conference. You’re not really registering since it’s over, but in the Registration Fees section of the registration page, you’ll see “Virtual Fox Fest Session Materials” for previous events. There’s also an opportunity to sponsor Virtual Fox Fest, which means your name will be listed on our Sponsors page (https://virtualfoxfest.com/sponsors.aspx).
