PROFESSIONALS of ALL AGES, Come one, come all!
Get ready for a sizzling, stupendous, spectacular, super SQLSaturday special
event! You waited, you asked, you
pleaded, when will New York host another SQLSaturday again! We wait no more, we
ask no more, and stop pleading will you? On August 17, 2013 – save the
date – prepare to be amazed as folks from all over the planet descend to our
fair city to partake in a grand helping of learning, lunching and laughing with
colleagues, friends, and sqlfamily. Announcing
(well you might’ve heard already) SQLSaturday #235!
The site is now live, so for more details please visit our event page. So, as of yesterday, the CALL FOR SPEAKERS & SPONSORS is now
officially open!! Please submit your
sessions by clicking on the highlighted “speakers” link. Any companies interested in sponsoring our
extraordinary event, click on the highlighted “sponsors” link. Any and all inquiries about the event should

If there is any doubt how wonderful this event is going to
be, we have received numerous emails day one, and over 30 speaker submissions
already before this blog was published!
We expect true quality learning from our favorite SQL Server superstars
including, MVPs, MCMs, PFEs and other subject matter experts. We expect over 350+ attendees (let’s make it
even more), over a dozen sponsors of our preferred vendors, and grandiose
giveaways and superbulous SWAG (I
made that word up 🙂
This great day of everything SQL will offer a chance to network
with so many attendees, and learn from the best experts in the field, with
multiple tracks of technical training and professional education. Nowhere in the world except for SQLSaturday
NYC can you get such valuable instruction in one day, and literally an
opportunity to change the course of your career forever!
So what better way to spend a summer day in one of the
largest venues around than to take a trip to NYC, and be with us for a
fun-filled Big Apple style SQL Server event that is worth every penny that you’ll
spend here – FREE! (A ride on the subway
will cost you more! 🙂
So, if you’re wondering who’s running the show this time
around, well Pearl Knows! It takes a team, and that team is led by NJ SQL User Group Chief, John Dempsey, and our tag team of
terrific talent returns to bring us SQLSaturdayNYC 2013! For
honorable mention, the peeps behind the scenes, our core inner circle comprises
of Alec A. Lazarescu, Natasha Gupta, and Deborah Takash. They all did such a fantastic job last year,
they’re back to do it again! Don’t
worry, if you want to get involved, there will be plenty opportunity for you to
step forward and volunteer! If
interested, contact us at the email above.
Also, providing advisory support is SQLDiva Melissa Demsak, who recently
stepped down from the NJSQL User Group, but still very much involved in our
strategy. And as she does with all
SQLSaturdays, providing tactical air support all the way from Florida, is PASS
Community Evangelist, Karla Landrum.
