Convince my Boss – Single Attendee

Dear [Boss’s Name]  

I am writing to you to ask for approval to attend The European SharePoint, Office 365 and Azure Conference (ESPC), Nov 27 – 30, Amsterdam.   

ESPC23 gathers world-wide Microsoft 365 & Azure experts to deliver exceptional keynotes, tutorials and sessions. The keynote line-up includes 3 Keynote Speakers: Jeff Teper, Karuana Gatimu and Rafal Lukawiecki.

Here are 3 benefits to our company if I can attend ESPC23:  

  1. Sharpen my Skills: I will learn from key industry experts across a variety of 120 track sessions. This knowledge will allow me to make better decisions, drive our projects forward and discover the latest updates, tips and tricks in the ever-changing Microsoft space.  
  2. Network: With over 1,500 expected attendees, I will be able to meet fellow professionals and hear about their success stories to save us time and money figuring out the best processes to follow and steps to take. 
  3. Spark new Ideas: ESPC23 will be full of new innovative ways to do the tasks we do each day. It will showcase clever ideas, methods and concepts that I can immediately bring back to the office.  

The cost to attend the conference is approximately [insert amount] – ticket price including food is [insert amount], travel expenses [insert amount], hotel [insert amount].

This is an incredible opportunity to learn from leading individuals in this space, to ask questions to the people behind the products and to network with like-minded individuals. I will return to work with sharable insights and the know-how to take our projects to new levels.  

Thank you for considering my request and I hope we can discuss it further.  

Kind Regards,
