Tauranga ICT Expo - Wednesday 27th May

It's that time of the year again.

This year, Pingar is sponsoring a workshop entitled 'Looking into the Future'.

Brett Roberts, Microsoft New Zealand’s National Technology Officer, will talk about Microsoft’s vision for the future and how this will impact on every business in the Bay of Plenty.

I get to speak for about five minutes. It will go something like this.

'Hi. My name is Peter. And this is Brett. Good afternoon.'

It is a sign of the strength of the local Western Bay of Plenty ICT sector that the stands and the workshops for the Expo sold out in record time this year. Last year was the first Tauranga ICT Expo and it probably exceeded expectations. Hundreds of thousands of dollars of 'new business' was signed up. This year, the exhibitors are perhaps better prepared and more focused. This really will become an annual event.

As last year, entry to local businesses is free. For more details, check out the WBOP ICT Cluster website.

Be there......
