Here are a few ideas to spark your response:
- A session that solves a problem you’re actively working on

Darn! I wish I could pick my favorite session but we are only allowed to attend bbcon every other year so I won't be there this year!!! :(

I am looking forward to more information about transiting our team from RE to NXT. I hope this session helps us find the best way to fully commit to NXT :-(

Hi @Sue Christensen excited to see you next year at bbcon! In the meantime, if you want to play, you can just look at the sessions and see which you'd be excited to see in person and comment that!

I am hoping to go this year for the first time. This summer, I am doing a lot of database cleanup so this session should be helpful:
From Messy to Meaningful: A 90-Day Data Hygeine Sprint in Blackbaud Raiser’s Edge NXT®
Our Development Director wants to change some things to make reporting easier for his team so I think this session could be helpful:
Making Your Campaigns, Funds, and Appeals Work for You: Designing for Smarter Reporting with Raiser's Edge NXT Dashboards
This session seems helpful:
Blackbaud Raiser’s Edge NXT® Super User Panel: Real Problems, Real Solutions, Real Fun
I was hoping to learn automation this summer, but the database cleanup is more important. I am still interested so I would attend this session:
Power Up Your Blackbaud Raiser’s Edge NXT®: Automation Strategies That Level You Up

I am looking forward to all the sessions for Blackbaud Grantmaking. I am especially excited about my session Fix the Friction: How Funders & Nonprofits Can Work Better Together with the amazing @Laura Sonnee and @Nichols Condon! Nothing like talking about the Power of Partnership between funders and grantees! And I bet there will be treats 😁😉
I am also excited to learn from my friend @Audrey Kidwell and @Ryan Turner on their session Due Diligence with Urgency: A Grantmaking case study from the Center for Disaster Philanthropy.
Oh, definitely can't wait to hear @Nick Mills and Paula Lentoni discuss Surviving and Thriving with the Grantmaking Applicant Portal Transition.
