WORKING IN THE CLOUD
QuickBooks Connect is your moment to step back from the day-to-day demands of running a business and learn skills that will have a positive impact on your future. The event features inspirational speakers, small group and one-one-one sessions, and support from some of the savviest experts in the industry. It’s also an opportunity to connect with solutions and 3rd party apps that are integral to QuickBooks and small business success, like our gold sponsor PayPal.
