What
The summit is an opportunity for our Gold Partners get a hands-on overview and influence the development and strategy of Umbraco.
The Umbraco Gold Partner Summit is exclusively for our Gold Partners and usually takes place at Umbraco HQ.
However this year, as our partner circle has expanded as well, we’ll host the summit at a new venue in the heart of Odense at Fynsk Erhverv (eng. Funen Business).

How
As mentioned, this year the summit will take place at Fynsk Erhverv and we are expecting more than 60 people to come to Odense for a great and inspiring day that binds all of our Gold Partners together
