Dear <manager-name>:
I would like to attend Visual Studio Live! Boston, June 10 - 14, 2018 at the Hyatt Regency in Cambridge, MA. The conference is produced by the publishers of MSDN Magazine, as well as sponsored and supported by Microsoft.

The up to 5 days of sessions and workshops at Visual Studio Live! Boston will:

• Improve my technical skills and make me a more valuable asset to the company.
• Give me the opportunity to learn from both industry experts and Microsoft product team members in a dev-focused environment.
• Make me more efficient and productive by shaving time and endless cycles off my development projects. Saving even 10 minutes an hour, would give me over 345 hours per year to spend on other critical projects.
• Allow me to network with other professionals in different industries to share best practices and gain new perspectives on the technology I work with daily.
• Open new avenues for me to find solutions for our biggest business and technology challenges.

The conference itself provides in-depth real-world training on:

• NEW! Full-day Hands-on labs Sunday, June 10
• Visual Studio 2017 / .NET
• ASP.NET Core and MVC
• Web and JavaScript Development
• Windows 10
• Azure / Cloud Computing
• Mobile Development
• Database & Analytics, including SQL Server
• DevOps/ALM
• And So Much More
