Creating Something Better
Ignite is more than an event, it’s a movement. It’s a partnership between vendors, operators, and NxtGen that is meant to ignite collaboration and Innovation. Regardless of the vertical you serve in, it is difficult if not impossible to thrive without either. But that’s not it. Relationships are equally as important and Ignite is the perfect event to build new relationships, strengthen existing ones, and ignite a movement to be something more.
