To add to what @Nash said, I've been the last two years and there's always quite a few breakout sessions in addition to self paced walk in labs and even a DevNET session or four. Here's what was on the bill for 2019 in San Diego: Meraki Integrations with the Cisco Security Architecture - BRKSEC-2069 Powerful network automation with Meraki APIs - DEVNET-1217 Building high capacity networks with Cisco Meraki - BRKEWN-1683 Powerful, programmable cloud networking with Meraki APIs - BRKRST-1733 High Density Access Networking with Cisco Meraki - PSOCRS-1105 Simple, Secure, Digital Workplace with Cisco Meraki - INTRST-1105 Taming Branch Security with Cisco Meraki - BRKSEC-2702 Integrating the Meraki SDWAN Solution with the traditional Enterprise network - BRKCRS-2103 SD-WAN Deep Dive: Cisco SD-WAN powered by Meraki - BRKCRS-1579 Delivering an Intent Based Network with Cisco Meraki - BRKCRS-2104 Cloud Managed Security from the WAN to the Endpoint with Cisco Meraki - PSOSEC-1622 DevNet Workshop-Infrastructure as Code 1001 - Network Provisioning, Management, and Monitoring with Meraki Dashboard API - DEVWKS-1069 The Hybrid Campus: How to deploy a combined Cisco SD-Access and Meraki solution - BRKCRS-2105 DevNet Workshop-Infrastructure as Code 1002 - Building, Configuring and Deploying WiFi Engagement Captive Portals with Meraki -DEVWKS-1110 Infrastructure as Code 2002 - Hardening your Meraki Network with Code (and APIs) - DEVNET-2434 Cisco Meraki MV: Camera as a Sensor for Enterprise, Not Just a Tool for Security - PSOIOT-1200 Cloud Managed Security & SD-WAN from Cisco Meraki - BRKSEC-2998 Cisco for SMB Customers - BRKGEN-1003 Expand Your Managed Services and Revenue with Cisco High Velocity Cloud-Based Offerings for SMBs - PSOSPG-1700 If you haven't already you can create an account on the CiscoLive website and get access to the recorded past sessions. Here's the search link I used to get these: https://www.ciscolive.com/global/on-demand-library.html?search=meraki&search.event=ciscoliveus2019#/ So while there won't be ECMS2, there is literally a ton of Meraki training available. Perhaps that can help you build your case to attend?
