OATUG Forum Online Sessions (Collaborate20 Replacement)


OATUG FORUM ONLINE SESSIONS (COLLABORATE20 REPLACEMENT)

As you are probably aware, the Collaborate20 conference in Las Vegas has been cancelled, along with every other in-person conference at this time.

The good news is that it has been replaced by the OATUG Forum Online from April 20 to May 1, 2020. The planned 500 sessions had to be cut to 200, but fortunately all three of our sessions have been selected; two led by our clients and one more technical session led by us.

We hope you are able to join us for one of these sessions. If you are unable to attend but would like to see a recording of the session, or find out more information, please contact us.
