WHY INBOUND 2025 IS WORTH ATTENDING

There will be 200+ sessions across new stages and formats, including hands-on workshops, tactical labs, and small group discussions. Speakers on the Main Stage include Amy Poehler, Dominique Crenn, Dario Amodei, and others sharing stories about leadership, innovation, and what it takes to build something that lasts.

Our sessions are led by practitioners who've been in the trenches, solved real problems, and are ready to show you exactly how they did it. Hear what is actually working right now and how to bring it back to your team. You’ll find hands-on workshops, real-world case studies, and time to dig into topics with peers who get it.

Plus, it’s all happening against a backdrop of tech inspiration and innovation in the heart of San Francisco. See how we’re making history, and be part of something truly special this year.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING BACK

Managers want to know what they’ll get in return. Fair. Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

Real examples from companies solving the problems you're facing.
Tools you can use to improve your own work.
And a network of new peers who might be helpful down the line.

Plenty of attendees use what they learn at INBOUND to update their strategy, train teammates, or build a case for new investments. The learning is immediate, but the impact lasts well beyond the event.

WHY IT’S BETTER WITH A TEAM

Here's a pro tip: while attending INBOUND solo is valuable, bringing your team multiplies the impact exponentially. Instead of trying to relay insights back to your colleagues, imagine experiencing those "aha moments" together and strategizing in real-time about how to implement what you're learning.

Plus, with a 15% discount for groups of 10 or more, you can transform INBOUND into a productive team offsite with built-in programming. It's professional development and team bonding rolled into one powerful package.

HOW TO ADDRESS YOUR MANAGER’S TOP CONCERNS

1. "The budget is tight this year."

Your response: INBOUND helps us skip multiple line items—courses, hiring consultants, planning offsites—and bundles it into one event. Plus, the sooner we register, the sooner we’ll have access to exclusive hotel rates to help keep costs down.

2. "We can't spare the team for three days."

Your response: Top-performing teams make INBOUND their strategic planning session. We'll return with documented action plans and divide session attendance to maximize coverage. I'll create a knowledge-sharing deck for anyone who can't attend.

3. "What makes INBOUND different from other conferences?"

Your response: INBOUND combines inspiration with implementation. Where other conferences stop at theory, INBOUND provides hands-on labs, workshops, and direct access to practitioners who've solved our exact challenges. Plus, we’ll get direct access to the HubSpot team and product.

4. "How do we measure success?"

Your response: We’ll set a few clear goals ahead of time and track progress within 30 days to review what we learned, what we've implemented, and how it's moved us forward.
