During the lunch break, each partner sponsor was invited to have a “Partner Minute” to let attendees know about their companies and the value they can bring to customers. In addition, Tech Deep Dives were delivered by Critical Logic, Orca Intelligence, and Nimble Evolution. Bob Crews of Checkpoint delivered our first keynote on Thursday, and Jeff Payne of Coveros and Melissa Daley of Orca Intelligence gave engaging talks during the conference. The conference itself allowed plenty of opportunities for more great conversations and the chance to hear from our partners, who were also speakers. It was a fun way to end the day and to kick off the conference. The partner group later transitioned to a more private dinner party at Bidwell in Union Market. Having that human-to-human element, interacting with people who are passionate about what they do but also know how to have a good time, is so important to me." You all are so friendly and genuine in your interactions, it is a breath of fresh air in an industry that is predominantly centered around sales and business. " For me personally, the best parts of the whole week were some of the 1:1, small group conversations I had with you two, as well as the rest of the Inflectra team. Gerard from Bienabee (the Inflectra partner) summarized his experience at InflectraCON 2023 as follows: Never ones to miss an opportunity to mingle with our friends, we hosted a reception for partners, trainees, and speakers on Wednesday night in the atrium of the conference center. We capped off the day with case studies presented by Hugo Sanchez of Coveros and Evan Masters of Critical Logic, which received rave reviews. Our interactive session on Spira and Rapise best practices had our partners sharing their ideas with us and each other. Partner team members presented the strategies for partnerships in North America, LATAM, and EMEA at the conference. Jessica discussed the new partner program, Audrey covered co-marketing, and Farid discussed Spira’s unique sales proposition and engaged the attendees with a fun quizlet. The forum kicked off on April 19, 2023, with a talk by Adam about the state of the industry, macro- and micro-issues impacting the QA, Agile & DevOps spaces, emerging trends, and Inflectra’s product roadmap. Some partners were also sponsors ( Thank You, Sponsors! We Love You!), so to take advantage of the EXPO and the conference, we held the Partner Forum and our Spira and Rapise training program on Apa day before the InflectraCON conference began. Our oldest partner of 15 years, Nimble Evolution (formerly OAT Solutions) from Brazil as well as our newest partner of only five days, mVerve from India, also made the trip to DC. It was great to get together so many teams and see everyone in person. In 2023, we were fortunate to have partners join us from places as nearby as Silver Spring and as far away as South America and India. This forum meets annually on the auspices of InflectraCON and is a platform for fostering collaboration, setting partnership goals, exploring innovative ideas, and forging stronger links within our expanded technology ecosystem. InflectraCON 2023 Partner Forum is an exclusive gathering of our partners and key stakeholders. Why? The InflectraCON 2023 Partner Forum! April 19, 2023, was an epic day in Washington, DC.
