Before Convergence 2013, Meet the Rockton Team featuring Alina Filipczak!

Written By Alina Filipczak,
Marketing Manager at Rockton Software

Rockton’s booth at Convergence has had some pretty crazy themes, what has been your favorite?

My favorite booth theme, so far, has been our Pirate Ship at Convergence 2010 in Atlanta. It was my first Convergence, and I was very surprised at what we, Rockton Software www.rocktonsoftware.com, had in our booth compared to other sponsors. Our 10x20 space was transformed into an incredible ship with a tall mast in the center, which displayed our TV screens for demos. We had treasure chests with gold coins—chocolate, of course—and jewelry; our backdrop was an image of an island in the distance with an old ship that had wrecked in the sea. The wood-grain floor, vinyl, and the pirate flags above made you feel as if you were at sea on a pirate ship many years ago. No seasickness, though! Maybe some sore feet! My coworkers and I were dressed in pirate-themed apparel that would catch the eyes of many passing by. Many attendees came by our booth just to catch a glimpse at what theme we had going on that year, and some even asked for photographs with the Rockton team! Many attendees get caught up in the theatrics of it all, but some have asked, “What do you do in the Microsoft Dynamics Community?” This is key reason why we go to Convergence!

No matter what theme we have each year, we are there to have fun with coworkers, cosponsors, and attendees. We are part of the Microsoft Dynamics Community, and we love what we do! See you in New Orleans at our Booth #1851!
