ALL ABOUT IDUG Anaheim

100% of our audience learned something! Terry told us all about the upcoming IDUG Conference in Anaheim California, April 30-May 4. This year the conference format is "new and improved ", so be sure to listen to the changes to make the most of your IDUG DB2 Tech Conference experience! Paul Turpin also shared with us news about the IDUG Data Tech Summit - which is essentially a conference within the IDUG conference that will be focused on emerging IBM technologies. Please enjoy our replay, and we look forward to seeing you at IDUG!


Show Host Scott Hayes Commentary

I love IDUG. We spend so much time in our electronic worlds that it is a real treat to actually meet with friends and associates face to face. Yes, there are over 120 tech sessions, ed seminars, SIGs, and keynote presentations, but my favorite part of IDUG is the networking events! I enjoy having real conversations with real people that are longer than 140 characters! Thank you Terry and Paul for joining us today, and thank you to all of the IDUG volunteers that make this conference possible!
