🔹 VMUG Advantage: Breaking down why it officially returns to having major advantages.
🔹 VMware Explore 2026: What to know, what to expect, and how to prep.
🔹 Get Certified: Maximize your career growth and your pocketbook benefits.
🔹 The Latest in 9.1: A deep dive into the new roadmap and why it matters to your infrastructure.

• 10:00 AM Sharp: Menus collected & Lightedge session begins!
⚠️ Note: Menus close exactly at 10:00 AM. Latecomers will go hungry!

Only a few days away. Hope to see everyone next week.

🚀 Huge news for the DFW tech community! VMUG Connect 2026 is officially landing right in our backyard this June, and the legendary UserCons we know and love are evolving into a massive, multi-day experience.
If you are managing enterprise infrastructure, virtualization, or automation, you need to be at the Hyatt Regency Dallas from June 9–11.

Instead of a single day, we are getting 3 full days packed with over 40 highly technical sessions, interactive panels, and deep-dive Hands-on Labs. You can entirely customize your schedule across 4 brand-new content tracks:

1. Build Better. Optimize Smarter. — Deep architecture wins and optimization best practices.
2. Real Stories. Real Impact. — Real-world problem solving, integrations, and automation strategies.
3. Grow. Adapt. Lead. — Leadership strategies and career growth in a shifting multi-cloud landscape.
4. Lab It. Learn It. Live It. — Live tech testing with expert-guided Hands-on Labs.

💡 Pro-Tip for VMUG Advantage Members:
If you hold a VMUG Advantage membership, your pass unlocks a massive VIP perk: FREE on-site VMware Certification Exams (and general attendees still get a huge 50% discount).
If you aren't a member yet, look out for the Bundle & Save Pass when you sign up—it includes your event ticket and a full 1-year Advantage membership upgrade for just $639 total. It practically pays for itself if you plan to sit for an exam on-site.
Let's show out in full force for the home team. Tag your teammates, get it on your calendar, and secure your spot today. Please help us get the word out and share with your friends.
