This is the tenth LinkedIn Talent Connect and according to the company it will be bigger and better than ever before. More than 4,000 attendees are expected to be in Dallas for the conference and a list of 60-plus speakers will lead conversations and breakout sessions. Attendees will get the chance to not only meet colleagues in their industry but also receive product training that will better familiarize them with LinkedIn tools.

The company will also make exclusive announcements about the platform to give attendees a competitive advantage.
