We had a great time at this year’s Women in the IT Channel Recognition Luncheon, and we’d love to thank everyone who attended, as well as to congratulate this year’s honourees and Rising Star once again!
Until next year’s event, we’d like to remember this one by posting some of the tweets that showed its highlights. In case you missed it, here’s what our day looked like:
