Speaker section goes here. The existing marquee markup drops in unchanged at this point in the page. Recommendation is to convert it to a static grid, drop the universal "Featured Session" label, and link each card to that speaker's anchor on /speakers rather than the page top. Not rebuilt here because the headshot assets weren't included.

A new tradition for the Maximo and TRIRIGA community.

Built by practitioners, for the people who actually run these systems.

Come home with something you can use Monday

Hands-on labs and real-world scenarios built by practitioners, in a dedicated conference facility with full A/V. Not a ballroom with a projector cart.

Relationships that outlast any ballroom event

Four days at sea with the people who actually run Maximo and TRIRIGA. Nobody flies out after the keynote. The conversation keeps going at dinner and on deck.

Private balcony cabin overlooking the water

Costs less than the conference you already budget for

Cabin, meals, Wi-Fi, sessions, and certification prep in one fee. Roughly $550 less all-in than a comparable land-based conference.

What it actually costs

One fee. The whole trip.

Most conference budgets get eaten by the line items nobody quotes you up front. Here is the honest side-by-side.

Numbers need a check before this goes live. The $4,000 figure holds at the current Full Price tier ($3,750 + ~$250 hotel), but it was written against the earlier $3,675 tier. Confirm against Cvent before publishing, and update it in the same pass that fixes the expired discount banner on /pricing.
