BBCON 2020 Virtual will be FREE to All Attendees!

Published

When we decided to shift bbcon 2020 to a global virtual gathering, we knew we wanted to do more than simply translate the tech conference for a better world into an online format. We wanted to reimagine the conference entirely!

Because of the impacts of COVID-19, we are making bbcon 2020 Virtual FREE for all to attend October 6-8!

We understand the challenges this year presents—from the safety of live events to budgetary and travel concerns. So, we want to take this opportunity to deliver our most accessible bbcon ever and know that expanding our audience will only enrich the experience for all.

Current registrants can either transfer their existing conference passes to bbcon 2021—and unlock additional perks for their organizations—or receive a full refund. We also will extend an automatic registration to that group or the choice to opt out.

Registration officially opens for everyone in July. We will release more comprehensive details then, including sessions, speakers, networking opportunities, and social events.

For more details view our FAQ page here. We hope to see you and your peers registering for the FREE bbcon 2020 global virtual gathering, this July!

Thank you for this opportunity! My organization would not be able to afford my attending bbcon any other way. Can you tell me if there is a lot of discussion about BB Grantmaking? My Executive Director would like to know if it is worth my time attending. Thanks!

Thank you Blackbaud you have made the BBCON available to those that wouldn't have been able to attend.

Top make a decision of accepting a refund or transferring our conference passes to BBCON 2021 it would be helpful to know, if possible, when and where BBCON 2021 will be. Also, how long do we have to request a refund if we choose not to attend 2021?
Thanks
Jerry
