I am very pleased to invite you to our
annual congress, to what I think is the System i educational
event in Europe. As with every year, we have planned for you many
sessions, covering most of the System i technologies, as well as
sessions of general knowledge covering the most important areas of an IT
department. Hands-on sessions on the latest technologies will also be
available, as well as the opportunity of acquiring official
certification in a range of topics.
But that is not all. The congress has also the
exhibition. We are planning a comprehensive show where you will find a
wide representation of IBM business partners and ISVs offering some of
the newest products and solutions related to the System i.
Finally, I would like to mention, what to
me is one of the most important reasons to attend this congress. The
fact that you will have the opportunity to network with your
professional peers during lunches, coffee breaks and social occasions,
exchanging experiences and best practices with them and, probably being
able to go back to your own job with new ideas on dealing with your
projects and everyday tasks.
If all of the professional reasons
already mentioned are not enough to convince you to join us, maybe the
environment of the congress will. It is not every day that one has the
opportunity to stay in a hotel with such a magnificent view of the
famous Tower Bridge, in the historic heart of London. So why not travel
a couple of days early and use the opportunity to see the sights?
I very much hope to see you in London next May.
