WHAT'S NEW
WITH KCDC?
If you have not been to KCDC for a few years, you might notice
things have changed a bit since your last experience! We are
extremely proud that what started ten years ago as a humble, local,
one-day meetup has grown into one of the industry's premier community-run
conferences.
We are expecting a sellout crowd, with 2000 people on hand for KCDC
2018. Last year, attendees came from over 35 states. Our world-class speakers—over 150 of
them—travel to Kansas City from around the world.
In addition to the 180 sessions on offer, our pre-conference day
(July 11) will feature nearly two dozen half-day and full-day workshops where you can roll up your
sleeves and dive deep into the weeds with awesome, experienced
instructors.

conference agenda for KCDC 2018.

GREAT
NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES
Any quality event recognizes that the value of a professional
conference goes beyond the daytime lectures. On Thursday night, we
host the annual KCDC Attendee Party. We will be returning for a
third year to No Other Pub by Sporting KC in
the Kansas City Power & Light District. Hundreds of people
attend ever year, sharing food, drink, and stories with each other.
Brought to you by our Titanium Sponsors, the Attendee
Party is the best place to relax after the first full day of
intense learning. Or if you're looking to keep busy, you can play
some ping pong, shuffleboard (cruise ship style!), board games, or
even get in a game of bowling.

THE BEST
CONFERENCE AFTER-PARTY AROUND
Even after KCDC is over—when the last session has ended, the nearly
50 sponsors have torn down, and the raffle prizes have been
distributed—things will not be quite over yet!
For the second year in a row, KCDC's great friend and supporter,
Todd Gardner, will be bringing his incomparable PubConf to Kansas City.
Described as "the after-party for speakers, by speakers, but
where we invite everyone else to join us," PubConf is an
entertaining variety show featuring music, comedy, and more
after-hours networking. Last year after KCDC was the first time
PubConf was hosted on American soil and it was a huge hit. Don't
miss it!

LEARNING FUN
FOR THE WHOLE FAMLY
Last year we launched a new sibling event to KCDC: The The Kansas City Kids Conference!
This FREE half-day event runs from 10am until 2pm on Saturday, the
day after KCDC has ended. Targeting children from early childhood
through middle school, KC Kids provides an opportunity
for families to come together to learn about a variety of
topics in STEM.
Learning centers include both dedicated "classroom-style"
sessions and a free-for-all maker space for our little scientists
to explore and learn at their own pace. Nearly 400 people will
be in attendance—with over 200 kids! KC Kids costs nothing to
attend, but is separately ticketed with limited spaces available.
So remember to get your tickets for this event, too.
