by Tim DiChiara, Site Editor

Did you know that TechTarget is now offering high-quality IT conferences FREE of charge? (Alas, there are no database-specific shows yet, but stay tuned.) That's right: no more $2,000+ fee just to get in! Our costs are 100% covered by sponsors and exhibitors, yet there is no marketing fluff--just real-world, hands-on advice from independent experts and leaders in the industry. Previous attendees have given these conferences an amazing 100% approval rating.

If you're a senior-level IT pro, just fill out the qualification forms on the sites below and you'll be quickly approved. It'll be the best three days you've spent out of the office!

Cheers, Tim
