Key Takeaways from Amazon Accelerate 2025 in Seattle
Where was your booth, Hector?
That was the question we got asked again and again at Amazon Accelerate 2025.
Truth is — we didn’t have a booth this time.
But we had something even better: six of us on the floor, moving across all three buzzing levels of the Seattle Convention Center, meeting people non-stop.
And what made it truly special?
When our own customers came up to us — mid-event — to introduce us proudly to their teams.
That moment hit different.
To every Hector user who reached out, chatted with us, or introduced us to someone new — thank you.
That’s the stuff that makes the grind worth it.
We’re carrying that energy forward — and yes, next year, we’ll 100% be back at Accelerate with a booth.
Now let’s talk about the announcements that stood out:
25 years of partnership between Amazon and independent sellers
Celebrated in a powerful fireside chat between Andy Jassy and Dharmesh Mehta
A clear signal that Amazon is investing in its seller ecosystem like never before
