In the world of the rapidly growing Digital Commerce, Magento is one name that stands out one of the benchmarks of the eCommerce market. Magento eCommerce has been a consistent and ever-evolving platform which has provided users with the capability of building an eCommerce storefront as the requirements of any business owner. With a number of international events on a frequent basis, Magento has made sure that they are present to their community and clients globally.
Recently, on 5th-6th September 2019, Magento organized their annual conference by Magento partners – The Meet Magento NYC! Thousands of people joined the event including retailers, developers, technology partners, and solution providers discussing and exchanging knowledge on e-commerce and digitizing one’s business. For New York, this was the “LARGEST EXCLUSIVELY MAGENTO EVENT IN THE US”. The event took place in the Edison Ballroom, 240 W 47th St, New York, NY 10036 and was hosted by MageMojo.
Team APPSeCONNECT was glad to be a part of Meet Magento NYC and attend the event.
Meet Magento NYC was a flamboyant and inspiring event which brought together Magento merchants, developers, evangelists, enthusiasts and many other professionals. This event not only dived deep into how Magento has evolved over the year but also provided substantial material on how it is planning to cater to its digital customers in the coming years.
After the Adobe acquisition, Magento has been delivering paramount solutions and enhancements to their products. In Meet Magento NYC, they showed how smart product recommendations are going to be introduced as a big part of the eCommerce industry.

With digital security being a practically big subject to cater to, Meet Magento made sure none of its stones were left unturned. The session on data security was the key!
