IBM i community event to feature Soltis, Massiello and Butterill!
Following the success of the inaugural iBelieve event in Anaheim earlier this year, looksoftware has announced that the next iBelieve event will take place on Thursday 27th September at the Downtown Conference Centre in New York City.
Dr Frank Soltis will once again headline the event, and will be joined by Pete Massiello, Alison Butterill, Trevor Perry and Brendan Kay. The speakers will look to the future of IBM i, examining the continued innovations and new skills that can drive the platform forward while also addressing some common misconceptions.
looksoftware CEO Brendan Kay states, "iBelieve Anaheim brought together IBM i users and experts alike, and highlighted many of the great successes happening on the platform. We are excited to continue the discussion on the strength of the world's best application server platform, and look forward to another excellent session in New York". Meanwhile, headline speaker Dr Soltis comments, “It was exciting to see so many people sharing ideas about the future of the platform in Anaheim, and I’m looking forward immensely to the next event”.
The open Q&A session also returns, providing an opportunity for attendees to address the speaker panel directly regarding the future of the platform.
The event is again free of charge to all attendees, running from 10am-3pm, and looksoftware will provide a light lunch and refreshments on the day. Venue details, a full agenda and the event registration form are available at http://www.looksoftware.com/i-believe-ny.aspx. Numbers are strictly limited so early booking is advised.
