overview
why attend MAX? max is an opportunity unlike any other, where you can discover the latest tools and techniques, connect with potential clients, new partners, and old friends, and be inspired by the brightest minds in the industry.
Overview
Top 10 reasons to attend: 1. The multiscreen imperative. As the landscape continues and change, MAX will remain the ideal place to learn about new devices and screens, new input methods, new formats, and new distribution models. Adobe MAX keeps you informed and relevant. 2. Visit the real intersection of design and technology. We bring together a mix of designers, developers, and business strategists from a wide variety of organizations. No matter what the role or the industry, everyone is focused on creating engaging digital experiences. This shared energy and passion sparks new ideasand breaks new ground every year. 3. Push the envelope There’s no doubt that an organization’s future success and profitability depends on its ability to create compelling applications, content, and video on screens of every size, across operating systems, that are accessible from anywhere at any time. At MAX, you can see how this is already being done and figure out
how to adapt your own organization’s approach to customer and market demands. 4. Become more productive MAX will help you work smarter and faster, starting the very next day. You’ll take ideas to market quicker through design and development workflows that support iterative development. Attend hands-on training labs, and learn from real-world case studies of success. 5. Upgrade your organization’s skills The dedicated Design, Develop, and Envision tracks are packed with sessions that directly relate to the work you’re doing now and the work you need to do next. The wide variety of sessions and labs that MAX offers enables you to choose those most applicable to your organization. 6. Learn from the experts All MAX sessions and labs are taught by the best of the best — the kind of people you don’t just run into every day. This is your opportunity to learn from their years of shared experience.
Overview
7. Bring home best practices Exchange ideas and build one-on-one relationships with people who have dealt with the same challenges your organization is facing, and learn how they tackled those challenges. And when you leave, those contacts will be part of your organization’s extended network. 8. Bring new visionary energy to your work Get exposed to new ways of thinking about your projects as well as some of the coolest, boundary-pushing, experimental work out there. 9. Know that it’s worth the investment The vast majority of MAX 2010 attendees felt their expectations for the event were exceeded. In fact, the number of attendees that told us MAX 2010 far exceeded their expectations tripled year over year. Attendees feel MAX is the place learn about industry trends, gain exposure to new products, and get information that is not accessible anywhere else.
10. Let loose and have fun When your brain is full and you just need some downtime, there are plenty of ways to relax. Hang out and play games in the Community Pavilion; eat, drink and be merry at the MAX Bash; and celebrate all the new inspiration you are bringing back.

Convince your boss
We have provided all the reasons why your attendance at Adobe MAX is a worthwhile investment, in language your manager will understand. Dear insert boss’s name ,I’d like to attend Adobe MAX from October 1-5 in Los Angeles. MAX brings together top designers, developers, and business minds to explore the future of digital experiences and stay at the forefront of the multiscreen revolution. Here are a few ways I think insert your organization’s name will benefit from my attendance: 1. It’s now or never - Last year at MAX, Adobe CTO Kevin Lynch gave a visionary talk about succeeding in the midst of a multiscreen revolution. As the landscape continues to change, MAX is the ideal place to learn about new devices and screens, new input methods, new formats, and new distribution models. MAX will keep us informed and relevant. 2. Visit the intersection of design and technology - No matter what their role or industry, everyone at MAX is focused on creating engaging digital experiences. This shared energy and
passion spark new ideas, drive new partnerships, and break new ground every year. 3. Become more productive - MAX will help me work smarter and faster. I’ll learn how to take ideas to market faster through design and development workflows that support iterative development. I’ll attend hands-on training labs and learn from real-world case studies of success. 4. Learn from the experts - All MAX sessions and labs are taught by the best of the best - the kind of people you don’t run into every day. This is a great opportunity for me to learn from their years of shared experience. 5. Bring new visionary energy to my work - I’ll be exposed to new ways of thinking about our projects as well as some of the coolest, boundary-pushing, experimental work out there. I believe that MAX is worth the investment. Last year’s MAX attendees said that their expectations were far exceeded when it came to learning about industry trends, gaining exposure to new products and technology, and getting information that is not available anywhere else.
