Just when I thought event travel for 2025 was done, there’s now one more on the calendar. Tomorrow, I’m going to Washington, DC to be part of Jeff Pulver’s latest iteration of vCon. I’ll be there for a networking dinner, then a full day of sesions on Wednesday, so it’s a short visit.

If you don’t know, I’ve been following this community for some time, and of course, I go back with Jeff to the VON era, when VoIP was arguably the most disruptive force in the communications space since the Internet. I would also argue the only things bigger in more recent times would be the rise of mobility, and now AI. Short story - Jeff has been ahead of the curve on many things, and if that still holds true, vCon is poised to become mainstream in 2026.

Definitely more coming on that front, and for those who follow my podcast, this is a Watch This Space space. Also, if you find this interesting, you’ll want to keep tabs on my LinkedIn feed on Wednesday for in-the-moment updates.
