Strategize Your Perfect Agenda

COLLABORATE20 can only be as good as your hand, or more importantly your agenda. Give yourself the best chances of “winning” and gear your schedule towards the sessions that you specialize in. There are over 1,000 sessions, trainings, and demos – so map out your agenda before hand for optimal strategy. To help, we’ve put together the top 10 sessions not to miss for both JD Edwards and Cloud users.

The deep-dive workshops are back by popular demand. Get the most value by taking advantage of these workshops to ask questions and get the answers you need. This year, we’re excited to host three workshops covering popular JD Edwards Orchestrator manufacturing topics.

 

There’s also a new app this year. The education agenda builder now has cool new functionality in which you can share your agenda to get matched with others who use the same Oracle product. It’s the perfect feature to have in hand to meet other people, while you’re there.

Networking 101 – No Poker Face Needed

How often are you face-to-face with other Oracle users and vendors? COLLABORATE20 in general is a big networking event and Quest has really focused on bringing some brand new networking efforts to the (poker) table.

C19 was the first ever speed networking event, which is an opportunity to meet other Oracle users. It’s back again this year and expanding it with buddy match, which will pair attendees with veteran users. Throughout the conference, pairs will meet a few times to help maximize your time at the conference. Think of it as a mentoring program – learn what to do, what to attend, and who to meet with while on site.

“The breadth of great content helps us define a better team strategy moving forward.”
