Networking & FUN at Ascend!

 

The breadth, depth and quality of Oracle-focused education at Ascend is second to none! But the connections you make and the insights exchanged over coffee, between sessions, in the Partner Pavilion and all points in between are invaluable. We have created boundless opportunities for that at Ascend!

 

Ascend Kick Off:
Celebrating Blasts from the Past

The opening reception will be one for the ages as we celebrate the best of decades gone by. Come prepared to enjoy tunes, fun and games as we break the ice and get conversations flowing as we bring back the best from the ‘50s, ‘60s, ‘70’s, 80’s, 90’s and ‘00s. Dress to impress with styles from your decade of choice, make new friends and win prizes as we kick off the conference in style.

Sunday, June 8 @ 5:00 p.m.

Attendee Appreciation Party:
Mission to Mars! 

We’ll celebrate the excitement and promise of the future with the help of a cool DJ and sights, sounds and fun that will be out of this world! Wear your dancing shoes and your favorite party outfit -- or go all out with us in metallic tones and wigs as we toast the future and the excitement that’s built this week.


Tuesday, June 10 @ 7:00 p.m.
