THE LONGEST-RUNNING SAAS CONFERENCE FOR NON-VENTURE TRACK FOUNDERS
Bringing you the SaaS tactics, frameworks, and stories that help you level up your business to 6-, 7-, and 8-figure valuations.
MicroConf is the original conference for bootstrapped businesses. We lean away from the “virtues” of raising boatloads of cash through venture capital, and help you build a profitable business that serves you.
Unlike giant tech conferences, MicroConf is intimate (around 250 people at most). That means you’ll actually get to know other attendees, plus meet some of the brightest minds in entrepreneurship and B2B SaaS.
You’ll get plenty of useful advice and perspectives that help you build your business — and not just from the speakers! Our “Hallway Track” (AKA informal conversations between sessions) has created game-changing insights for founders, forged lifelong friendships, and has always been the linchpin of the MicroConf experience.

“There’s no conference like MicroConf”
Coming to #MicroConf this week. It's my home away from home; a few hundred geeks building software/etc businesses with a focus on sustainability, value creation, and community.
— Patrick McKenzie (@patio11) April 28, 2018
Expect a lot of tweets come Monday.
This was my second time at MicroConf and it did not disappoint.
There's something special about being in a room full of startup founders who can relate with this crazy journey. I'm grateful for the support of my tribe.
This is just what I needed in the exact moment I made the scary and exciting transition to go full-time.

The energy at #MicroConf was incredible!
Just what you need to get those entrepreneurial juices going. So many talented folks, so many great ideas but most importantly, so many great vibes 🙌
-MicroConf US 2025 Attendee
I just returned from an amazing few days at MicroConf New Orleans 2025, and I’m still buzzing with insights. The energy was electric, and the diverse community is the reason so many continue to return year after year. Lianna Patch absolutely nailed it with her comedy as the Emcee.
I had great conversations with founders about juggling all the demands of building a company and shared a few of my own early mistakes (learned the hard way) in hopes of helping someone else avoid the same pitfalls.
