8th Annual Arizona Technology Summit
This year’s 8th Annual Arizona Technology Summit (held at the Phoenix Convention Center on September 14th, 2016) was a whirlwind of excitement, networking and breakout sessions. The theme for 2016 was “Conquering Your IT and Security Objectives.“ The AZ Tech Summit is a great opportunity for local and national businesses to get to know, meet and build relationships with companies they either work with or hope to work with in the future as well as “…to get the right tools and make vital connections to best prepare your company for the broad spectrum of ever-changing technology trends.”
The Summit is a great fit for everyone involved as there are lots of freebies and goodies for attendees from all levels of organizations, across many different industries. AZ Tech Summit brings incredible brand awareness and sales opportunities for the vendors and sponsors alike. It’s truly a win-win! And with the vast selection of breakout sessions to attend, it’s a guarantee you will walk away knowing more than you did beforehand, and probably making some new connections!
“Our Sponsors provide invaluable knowledge and expertise to the Technology Summit. They are among the greatest contributors to the success of each conference.” -Arizona Technology Summit
At Trapp, we strive to make your world run a bit more smoothly and aim to provide solutions that fit your needs, even in the littlest way possible! As attendees entered and registered for the event, we provided a fancy Trapp Swagg bag along with all of the necessary brochures and information for the day. With all the printed documents, key chains, pens, stress balls (and more!) being handed out, it’s nice to have a place to keep everything! As always, we’ve got you covered.
Vendors brought their A-game, showcasing what they do best while making the day a fun and rewarding one. The talks were packed with informative and educational content that made sure every attendee walked away feeling like they got some insider info.
The Trapp Technology crew knows how to throw a killer tech talk, and we proved it. “A Tech Talk that Doesn’t Suck! IT Spend Benchmark Insights” brought a fully packed house with every seat filled and standing room only. We offered invaluable data and information pertinent to your growing business, whether big or small. Interactive polling throughout ensured the audience stayed interested and involved throughout the entire talk. No blank stares in the house!
Not only did the audience leave highly informed and ready to evaluate their business IT spend, but they had FUN, too. Furthermore, there was a $500 cold hard cash giveaway AND we threw t-shirts. You read that right; we threw some Trapp Swagg t-shirts into the crowd. You could feel the anticipation in the air as conference goers reached for their shirt. No one dove or was injured, thank goodness, but there was some decent competition happening, it was quite entertaining to watch! That won’t be the last time either, who doesn’t love catching t-shirts flying through the air?
Wooo! T-shirts! This really is a “Tech talk that doesn’t suck!” @TrappTechnology is this a suns game? #azts16 pic.twitter.com/YFLsVU8Qqw

Enough about how much fun we are, let’s go into a few of the highlights from our tech talk. We answered some thought-provoking questions, such as:
• Are you spending the right amount on technology?
• Do you have the right tech spending mix for your industry?
• Are you spending too much on legacy?
• Do you face a tech fixed-contract challenge?
• Are you doing everything to keep tech MOOSE costs as low as possible?
