IEEE Computer Society and IEEE Eastern NC Section Joint Meeting - IT
Spend and Standard Industry Operating Ratios

 

Please join us for a discussion on IT spend and industry operating
ratios with representatives from the IT industry that are able to share
experiences on the subject. Bring your questions and answers. Event is
free thanks to our sponsors. If you are looking for formal agenda and
speaker, you will be sorely disappointed and may obtain a full refund.
We hope you will get as much out of the event as you put into it and
walk away with knowledge that will help you make the best financial
decisions when planning your information technology operating budget.

Lync audio will be the only way to listen, so you'll actually need

appropriately.

chat.
