Why has Gartner now decided to cancel this conference instead of postpone?
Given the evolving situation regarding Coronavirus, as well as increased and extended precautionary measures being put in place by Governments around the world, we have now decided to cancel this conference in 2020. Gartner will continue to run select Conferences in the Fall of 2020, and we will once again welcome attendees back to Gartner IT Infrastructure, Operation & Cloud Strategies Conference in 2021.
Registration for this conference is closed.

Is my attendance limited if I am not currently a Gartner client?
Absolutely not! As long as you have fully paid your registration fee, you have access to all conference activities open to you along with Gartner session documentation. If you’re interested in becoming a Gartner client, you can visit the Gartner Zone at the conference to better understand the benefits you’ll receive.
Are there limited seating sessions that I need to sign up for?
Yes, you will need to sign up in advance for some sessions like workshops, Meetups and roundtables. If you try to register for a session and it is listed as “full” or ‘“closed,” there is still a possibility you can attend. Once at the conference, find the room for that session and arrive there about 15 minutes prior to the session start to have your name added to the waiting list. Spaces will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Bookings open for these sessions for alumni on 28 October 2019, and for general attendees on 11 November 2019.
What should I wear?
We suggest comfortable shoes — you’ll be doing a lot of walking from your hotel room to the conference space, from session to session and while navigating the Exhibit Showcase. Business casual dress is what most attendees opt for, but we also recommend that you dress in layers, as the conference rooms can get chilly.
Am I able to purchase a copy of the attendee list?
No, Gartner does not post or sell attendee lists. For more details please review the registration Terms & Conditions.
Please be advised that in the conference industry we often come across fraudulent service providers who claim to be able to offer attendee lists or discounted passes. Gartner has not authorized anyone to contact you on our behalf and we encourage you to avoid these attempts by not engaging with suspicious emails or calls as they are phishing scams. If you have been contacted by such a provider please inform Gartner at ReportPhishing@gartner.com.
