I look forward to the NTEN NTC (Nonprofit Technology Network's conference) every year. This is actually my first time officially speaking at NTC. Numbers-wise, the NTC is no Dreamforce. A significant number of the NTC sessions are focused on strategy and constituent-facing technology applications. I love it.

The NTC Open Salons will be your opportunity to talk techie with your peers in ad-hoc, participant-driven sessions not represented on the regular NTC Agenda.

This was my first experience with NTEN, a great organization that I think really “gets it,” both in terms of facilitating positive interactions with people and technology, and understanding challenges specific to the nonprofit world. Can you describe your experience at the 14LCS? 14LCS was a transformative experience for me in many ways.
