Editor’s Note: We have been closely monitoring the situation with COVID-19, and after much consideration, we have made the decision to cancel re:MARS 2020. Our top priority is the well-being of our employees, customers, partners, and event attendees. Over the course of the coming weeks, we will explore other ways to engage the community. To stay up to date on the latest, sign up for re:MARS updates and follow us on Twitter at @AmazonreMARS. If you have questions, please contact us at remars-support@amazon.com.

 

Can you believe it? It’s almost time for re:MARS 2020 ?!

It’ll be from June 16-19 in Las Vegas, NV, with standard pricing at $1999. This year we have an all-new Amazon re:MARS Developer Day for engineers and developers to engage with Amazon product teams. We’ll also have breakout sessions just like last year where leaders, thinkers, and technical advisors can get inspired by how Amazon leaders and industry peers are applying these technologies today.

You will be able to choose from over 100 main event sessions and activities featuring visionaries working on the future, organizations applying these technologies today, and even take a peek behind the curtain at Amazon’s own implementations. You’ll also see new exhibits and interact with even more peers and experts than last year!

Get ready to hear from Jeff Bezos, Jon Favreau, and more at Amazon’s event dedicated to Machine Learning ?, Automation and Voice ?, Robotics ?, and Space ?.

Sad because you missed it last year?

Don’t be! ?
