What people who attended the 2010 events have said:
It was one of the best IT conferences and most useful and applicable seminar I have ever been to since I have been working in IT , document automation and legal firms’ in business systems management. It was inspiridng, the presenters were well informed and passionate about their subjects and the general level of the conference was professional and the different “tracks” were all applicable.“ Meghan Kemp, Sydney-based Document Controller/SharePoint Administrator at White Energy, Australia
"SharePoint is an integral part of our company solutions and the SPevents conferences provide the focus and content to enable us to reach our target audience. As a Sponsor making both a financial and time based commitment, it is important the event is run professionally; with great content, speakers and conference structure to help ensure we maximise our return on investment. SPevents has delivered on each occasion in coordinating and delivering a successful event for us as a sponsor while providing value to attendees.
We have been a sponsor of the New Zealand event two years running, and a gold sponsor at this year’s inaugural Australian event. We will continue to support this community, given the benefits we have seen from our involvement."
