ElevateCX is the premier event for customer support and customer experience professionals. There’s more to customer support than just answering an email really fast, and ElevateCX is where people who take customer experience seriously can find deep, engaging education that they can use to train their teams. Our attendees are customer support agents, managers, team leads, and others who are on the front lines of customer experience each day.
Cultivate your network
Not only do we bring experts to the stage to teach and train, we’ve always focused on building a rewarding community for our attendees. Most of our audience has been to 3 or more of our events, and many past speakers return again as attendees and develop lasting relationships. We carefully plan a lot of social time so you can meet speakers, network a bit, or go take a nap without missing a good talk. (We’ve thought about everything!)
ElevateCX is the premier event for CX Leaders
Since 2012, we’ve been producing events to meet the immediate need for education and career development for customer support, customer success, and customer experience teams. In the past 10 years, we’ve produced 30 events in cities like San Francisco, Austin, New York, Chicago, London, Portland, Philadelphia, and Sydney, Australia. We’ve showcased over 300 speakers on stage from companies like Google, Atlassian, Etsy, Microsoft, and Calm, as well as smaller software companies and universities.
Short & Sweet Talks
All talks are TED-style, 15 minutes or less. We don’t waste time on panels or Q&A, but all speakers are available for direct conversations in our private attendee Slack channel.
Actionable Advice
Talks are curated to bring actionable takeaways for every attendee, no matter their job title. We choose talks that will help current leaders and raise up new leaders through actionable education.
Meet some of our awesome speakers
As a peer-to-peer conference, we rely heavily on speakers who were previous attendees. We don’t pay anyone to speak, and while any of our sponsors have applicable talks for our audience, we don’t sell speaking slots, either. Think you may have a story to share? Apply to speak at our next event!
