| Dear MarTech Enthusiast,
 MarTech® is the event for senior decision makers working at the intersection of marketing, technology, and management. Here are eight reasons you should join us October 1-3 in Boston:
1. Learn from real-world experts. Speakers make the conference, and MarTech delivers experts from brands, agencies, and integrators. They're eager to help you rethink your marketing strategy, make the right additions to your martech stack, and build talented cross-functional marketing teams. We don't put celebs on stage for entertainment; you'll only hear real marketers sharing real solutions to real-world challenges. See the complete agenda.
2. Unlock horizon-expanding keynotes. We're excited to host a diverse bunch of keynote speakers including…  See all speakers and keynotes.
3. No hard sells allowed. MarTech is independent. It's not owned by a vendor. We don't have axes to grind (or sales targets to meet) when it comes to any technology or platform. Speakers are selected based on their professional chops and don't pay for the privilege. Identifying sessions where vendors pay to present isn't a mystery; we tell you when they've done so.
4. You'll meet others like you. You'll share strategies, ideas, and experiences with others who are charged with dragging their organizations — often kicking and screaming — into the future of marketing.
5. MarTech is as pleasant as it is productive. "Ah ha" moments delivered by expert presenters and connecting with other marketing technology pros is just the beginning. You'll also enjoy structured and unstructured networking, discover results-driving and time-saving solutions, plus the conveniences that make attending a pleasure: great meals and snacks, free WiFi, and a friendly environment.
6. It's an amazing team-building opportunity. Your team is talented and has diverse backgrounds and skills, but sometimes getting everyone on the same page is difficult. Attending together will unite your crew with a common experience and vocabulary, and provide the foundation for rapid progress. We even offer special rates for teams.
7. It's programmed with passion. I have chronicled the rise of marketing technology and its impact on marketing strategy, management, and culture on chiefmartec.com since 2008. I also create the annual Marketing Technology Landscape Supergraphic, and I'm the author of Hacking Marketing, a guide to marketing management in a software-driven world. It is an honor to program, guide, and moderate MarTech.
8. It's an outstanding value… no matter the budget. We know those attending MarTech have differing needs and budgets. That's why we offer a variety of pass options:
