Additional Information

Gartner is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive conference experience for all participants. If you have an accessibility-related need, please let us know in your registration profile or email us directly at GlobalConferences@gartner.com, ideally at least three weeks prior to the conference. Once we receive your request, one of our Accessibility Ambassadors will contact you.

Please be advised that in the conference industry we often come across fraudulent service providers that claim to be able to offer hotel reservation services. Please note that Gartner has not authorized them, or any other organization, to contact you on our behalf. We encourage you to avoid these attempts by not engaging with suspicious emails or calls.

We recommend that attendees follow the booking instructions on the Venue page to make all hotel reservations. Booking with unknown service providers exposes you to the risk of incurring fraudulent credit card charges, and your reservation for the conference may not be valid.

If you are contacted by a fraudulent service provider, please be sure to inform Gartner at ConferenceFraudulentProviders@gartner.com

Please see the list of fraudulent hotel providers that have been reported to Gartner.
