Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary



I love IDUG. This year is IDUG's 30th anniversary, and it will be the 30th North American Conference that I've attended. IDUG conferences are the best place to learn what's new with Db2, learn about best practices, and, of course, network with your friends and peers! The Exhibit Hall is fun too - you can meet with vendors, collect cool give-aways, and socialize!

DBI is also presenting two Vendor Solution Presentations - every attendee will receive a very nice gift with our thanks for attending, plus we'll be raffling off some Amazon Echo Dot prizes.
