"My second MadWorld is now in the books. A huge thank you to MadCap Software for putting on a great conference and for having a fantastic product that makes our work lives so much more efficient. Thank you to all of the speakers for sharing your knowledge with us, and to the hotel for being a gracious host."
Bryan Anderton | MadWorld Attendee

New for 2019: The Pre-Conference Workshop
What’s new for next year, you ask? Good news: We’ve added a new Pre-Conference Workshop on Sunday, designed to help new users get the most out of the conference. The full-day workshop offers hands-on sessions covering introductory concepts such as getting started with Flare, importing content, creating styles, reviewing content and publishing your first project.

Get Hands-On Support in the Technical Support Lounge

With hands-on guidance from senior level technical support members, the popular support lounge offers a great opportunity to talk to team members all conference long.
Networking Events and More
One of the many things MadWorld attendees have come to expect about the conference is that it is a whole lot of fun. And it should be. Learning doesn’t have to be dull or boring.
With nightly networking events, MadWorld is your chance to connect with fellow users from across North America representing a vast range of industries, skill sets and areas of expertise. The conference kicks off with a Welcome Reception at the Hard Rock Hotel, Monday night is an off-site event, Tuesday is the Closing Reception at the Woodstock event space at the Hard Rock Hotel, and Wednesday's Advanced Workshop wraps up with a happy hour.
The conference also offers a tremendous value. Breakfast? Included. Lunch? Included. Hosted evening events? You guessed it – included. Beyond the cost of the conference, hotel, and airfare, very little additional expenses are needed to enjoy the conference.
