Attending WeAreDevelopers World Congress North America (September 23–25, 2026 in San José) is more than a conference trip — it’s a direct investment in improving engineering productivity, accelerating innovation, and strengthening your team’s technical capabilities.

Below is a concrete breakdown you can share with your manager to justify your attendance.

Subject: Request to attend WeAreDevelopers World Congress 2026 in San Jose

Dear [Manager],

I'm writing to request your approval to attend WeAreDevelopers World Congress North America, taking place September 23–25, 2026 in San José, CA.

Attending the event will allow me to:

  • Gain actionable insights from top tech experts from GitHub, Netlify, Datadog, Microsoft, LinkedIn, BNY, and Mercedes-Benz to refine our approach to [PROJECT 1] and [PROJECT 2]
  • Complete on-site workshops to advance my skills and prepare for new challenges
  • I’ll stay up to date on emerging trends in AI-powered development, cloud-native systems, automation, and modern engineering practices, helping us make better long-term technical decisions.

I've estimated my attendance will cost ~$1,700, which covers Congress Pass, travel, and accommodation.

Estimated costs:

  • Estimated total: ~$1,700
  • Round-trip domestic airfare: ~$500–$650
  • Hotel (three nights in San José): ~$230 per night / ~$690 + tax and fees
  • Conference pass: ~$500 (Early Bird discounts available)

‍

Let me know if you're on board, and we can go through the pre- and post-event action items together.
