VMworld US 2019 – Parties, Gatherings, Events and more
It’s again this time of the year before VMworld is happening. So it’s time to plan your parties or gatherings accordingly. This time VMworld 2019 will take place in San Francisco. Attending VMworld is not only attending an IT conference. It is also a big networking event where you can talk to vendors, tweeps or bloggers. What will be better for socialising than parties and gatherings at VMworld. It’s my second year were I will create a small list of parties, gathering and events going on at VMworld 2019 US. Unfortunately I won’t attend the US conference this year because San Francisco is a more expensive city than Las Vegas was and for self-paying this is definitely to much. VMworld full conference or guest pass is required for some parties and for others you need to register because space is limited.
If you are a vendor or somebody arranging a party or gathering at VMworld US please contact me on Twitter (@Fred_vBrain) or by e-mail (fred (at) vbrain (dot) info) so I can add your party/gathering/event to the list.
