Inspired from Smashing Magazine - https://smashingconf.com/sf-2019/convince-your-boss Dear {{ amazingBossName }},
I would like to ask for your approval to attend Devnexus 2020 (http://devnexus.com) that will be taking place in Atlanta on February 19—21. While there are a number of enterprise developer conferences to choose from, the insights and material presented and discussed there are exactly what our team needs to become more efficient, stay ahead of competition and avoid unnecessary costs like technical debt. This is the 16th year that this conference is being run. Its established now as the largest java and java ecosystem conference in the USA
Unlike large scale conferences which often can be disorganized and have subpar sessions, Devnexus is very focused and well-curated. Many of the speakers are Published Authors, Java Champions, Globally Recognised speakers and Developer community leads. With 12 full day workshops and 15 concurrent tech tracks this conference is truly the best.
