Big Tech, Unplugged.

We invite you to an exclusive evening at the ICED Rural Innovation Conference. Jeff Sandquist, a hometown hero, returns to share his journey from Estevan to the forefront of Big Tech.

Raised in the Estevan area, Jeff Sandquist has gone from small town to big tech. He has had a front-row seat to the world of technology, rising to executive leadership roles at Microsoft, Twitter, and Automattic.

Joining Jeff for the interview will be none other than John Gormley. For 25 years, John dominated the airwaves on CKOM Saskatoon and CJME Regina, where he became a household name and a trusted source of news, analysis, and opinion.

Together, they’ll take you on an “unplugged” journey through Jeff’s inspiring path from Estevan to the executive suite of Big Tech.

Mark your calendars for September 11th and prepare for an unforgettable evening with Estevan’s own Jeff Sandquist. This is an event you won’t want to miss!
