    PNC Stadium
    ‍    Two-minute walk from the hotel

Discovery is the only independent software-as-a-service platform for waste & recycling brokers and managers.

We bootstrapped the company and are completely invested in your success. We are in this for the long-haul, building what our customers need and the market demands.

A Note from Brian Dolan, DSQ Technology President

Thank you for considering joining us in Pittsburgh this September 16-17 for Waste Nexus.
 
We think the waste industry needs a value-producing event, without the drain of surface-level networking and expensive booths. People want real, unfiltered connections across every corner of the waste and recycling world.
 
So, we created the space for it. Waste Nexus.
It would be awesome if you could join us. Please apply because space is limited.
If you're not sure about applying, here's what I'd want you to know.
 
First, this isn't a sales event for us. We're not pitching our products at this event.
 
Here's what you can expect:
 
When you arrive on the 16th, we’ll host an afternoon welcome event with no "boring ass" speeches or rah-rah baloney. We'll probably compete in something fun while people meet & greet.
Then we'll go to the Pirates game. It's walking distance and a beautiful ballpark.
On the 17th, we'll have the most value-creating one-day-event you’ve ever participated in. A full day of extremely valuable 1:1 and small group engagement for your benefit.
 
Please know that I'm asking you to be actively engaged at this event. To participate and create value.

If you’re intrigued (crazy?) enough to join us, apply by submitting the form below.
 
Thank you!
-Brian
