About the Conference Venue


Denver is the capital and most populous municipality of the U.S. state of Colorado. This city is an important industrial center, a major destination for business travel, and a good base for trips into the Rockies.

Denver is nicknamed the Mile-High City because its official elevation is exactly one mile above sea level, making it one of the highest major cities in the United States.

The city has an agreeable continental climate, with plenty of sunshine and low rainfall. 300 days of sunshine, a thriving cultural scene, diverse neighborhoods, and natural beauty combine for the world's most spectacular playground.
