Roboon Will Shake Things Up at CanUX 2019

This year the fun on the CanUX stage is about to double.

 Roboon (Rob & Boon) will co-emcee CanUX in 2019

One of the new twists of the 10th edition of CanUX in 2019 is the fact that it will be co-emceed by RoBoon, the dynamic duo of Rob Woodbridge, our emcee extraordinaire for the past 9 years and counting, and Boon Sheridan, our former speaker, workshop instructor and panel host who has been omnipresent at CanUX since 2015. Those of you who have been coming to CanUX for the past few years have already seen them in action (separately), this year we’re stoked to see them (attempting to) share a stage for the first time.

Between bouts of title whiplash he’s helped build some very big things, some very small things and learned a lot along the way. In his down time, (Who are we kidding? All the time!) Boon enjoys new cocktails, old records and he’s always up for swapping stories over a beverage.
