In October 2024, Stewart Tech Client Success Manager Jessica Gardner attended her first Sage Conference in Chicago, IL. We asked her to share some highlights of the event and provide us (and you) a recap of what stood out. Read on for Jessica’s brief recap:
I attended my very first Sage conference this October and wow, what an experience! I didn’t know what to expect, but I walked away inspired and energized. The event was a whirlwind of exciting moments, incredible people, and mind-blowing insights.
One of the best parts of the conference was the chance to connect with the broader Sage team: account reps, sales channel directors, Sage VPs of innovation and fellow Sage partners. Everyone I met was so welcoming and passionate about what they do. There’s something special about being surrounded by people who are genuinely invested in helping to make business processes more innovative, faster, and efficient. I had fantastic conversations, swapped stories, and even made a few new friends.
The educational workshops I attended were another personal highlight of the event. One workshop in particular offered a deep dive into industry trends and challenges for the non-profit sector, an industry Stewart Tech is excited to do more work with in the future. I was impressed by how informative, engaging, and hands-on the workshops were, offering real-world applications of Sage products. They were designed to give you actionable insights you could take back and implement immediately. The team behind these workshops brought their A-game, and I left each session with new tools to better serve our Stewart Tech customers and prospective clients.
Beyond the people and the workshops, what truly excited me was getting a sneak peek at the innovations Sage has on the horizon. The future looks incredibly bright! From cutting-edge technologies to game-changing features that will provide users with even more freedom, it’s clear that Sage is pushing the envelope when transforming business management. I’m excited about these new features and their potential to streamline processes, boost productivity, and drive growth. The energy in the room was infectious as we all got a glimpse of what was coming next — it was very impressive.
Overall, attending this Sage conference was an absolute delight. I walked in not knowing what to expect, and walked out with a head full of ideas, new connections, and an eagerness to dive into the future of business technology. I’m already looking forward to the next one in spring 2025, and I’m excited to see where all these innovations will take us.
