DNN Summit is an annual technology conference educating users of the DNN (DotNetNuke) content management platform. This 2-day virtual event is designed for all user types: business owners, end-users, developers, designers, and marketers. Although geared toward DNN users, several sessions focus on general design, development, and marketing best strategies that are not specific to DNN, making the conference an excellent opportunity for anyone trying to improve their digital presence.
Each year, 10 Pound Gorilla volunteers a significant amount of our time to help teach others web development and digital marketing best practices. We proudly host, sponsor, and attend the DNN Summit. Cassidi Peterson, our founder, is the president of the DNN Association, the organization responsible for hosting the conference, and she meets bi-weekly with a committee to ensure the success of this event. Several team members contribute by speaking, designing marketing materials, sending out e-newsletters, and more.
