If you didn’t know we love to reward the community and those who join us at SQLBits, with awards and gifts to make a great end to the week of training! We make sure you are given the chance (and lots of chances) to win prizes from ourselves and our amazing sponsors. These aren’t just any old boring prizes, this year attendees, volunteers, and speakers won some monster Lego sets, an Xbox, arcade-themed gifts, and loads more that they can take home as a memento and look back at SQLBits and smile!
Let’s look at some of our winners!
Advancing Analytics
Advancing Analytics (@AdvAnalyticsUK) prize winner won an Amazing LEGO Creator Mustang…That’s going to take some time to build at expert level!
We had a bunch of winners fore supplying feedback at SQLBits, congratulations to everyone who took a miniature LEGO London set home as a souvenir!

However, this year we didn’t just choose to reward the people, but the planet. We planted trees for every feedback form that was completed for our speakers (a mutually beneficial prize of feedback and trees!).
