Registration is now open for the three-day event, featuring more than 40 informative sessions including customer case study presentations, as well as training and networking opportunities, and after-hours events.

Centered on a theme of "Accelerate," Boomi World offers insights into using cloud-native integration to speed business and IT impact. Boomi customers, product experts and independent thought leaders will share perspectives on how integration platform as a service (iPaaS) lets organizations connect applications and data far faster and more flexibly than custom-coding or traditional on-premise middleware. Workflow automation and real-time data exchange through Boomi increases speed and cost-efficiency across the organization to drive business advantage.

Underscoring the "Accelerate" theme and joining the speaker lineup is Michael Massimino, a former NASA astronaut who flew two Space Shuttle missions. In his keynote, Massimino will draw parallels between his career as a NASA astronaut, including Space Shuttle flights in 2002 and 2009, with the imperative for modern businesses to accelerate agility and gain competitive advantage through faster processes, insights and time to value.

Featured industry thought leaders, technology innovators at leading companies, and Boomi executives speaking at Boomi World include:

  • Chris McNabb, Boomi CEO, responsible for all operations, strategic direction and alignment with customers and partners
  • Massimo Pezzini, Gartner Research Vice President and Fellow focusing on integration, including integration platform as a service (iPaaS)

  • Brian Kmet, Manager, Business Data Optimization and Analytics, PCL Construction
  • Michael Morton, Boomi CTO, in charge of product direction and innovation across Boomi's multifunctional platform
  • Jeff Burk, VP, Research and Development for Boomi, responsible for product development and strategy

In addition, Boomi World will feature breakout sessions oriented around five tracks of Developer, Architect, DevOps, Platform and Solutions. Sessions at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels are designed to appeal to both newcomers and those with significant iPaaS experience. Breakout sessions will offer practical how-to guidance, best practices and customer success presentations, as well as sneak peeks at upcoming product innovations and strategies in areas such as security, Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity, customer centricity, human resources, manufacturing and omnichannel commerce.
