Orlando's 17th Annual SQL Saturday is a free one-day training event for IT professionals and students interested in the Microsoft data platform (SQL Server, PowerBI, SSIS, and much more). Free registration is required, you can opt-in for lunch or bring your own, whatever works for you! This year we will have five tracks containing five one hour sessions, plus three sponsored sessions during the lunch break.
We're also hosting our annual Student to IT Pro Seminar, a block of four 30 minute presentations that start at 9 am that are designed for students attending Seminole State. Students who attend will get extra credit (see your professor for details) and are welcome to stay for the rest of the day and attend any of our data centric presentations.
There is a code of conduct for this event that all attendees are expected to follow. Please report violations to the organizers

SQLSaturday Orlando will be held on the campus of Seminole State College on October 12th, 2024. This year we plan to deliver five tracks with each having five one-hour presentations and a final end of day gathering for giving away prizes. Our normal attendance is in the range of 250-275, but based on other recent events we are forecasting 150-200 attendees (320+ registrations in 2023).
This year, we are offering only one sponsorship plan - Exhibitor. If you have any other options or ideas in mind that are not listed below, please contact us. We will do our best to accommodate your request!
Sponsorship Levels
All sponsors will be listed on our SQLSaturday event page and announced to attendees during the event. All sponsorship fees must be paid in advance of the event. Attendees receive a raffle ticket for each sponsor, we encourage sponsors to bring one or more prizes valued at at least $100 and display it prominently at your table. The raffle tickets will have a QR code that contains the attendee info. We recommend purchasing a 2D compatible scanner as they are much faster than using a phone.
