Tech Together

ITAG - Innovative Technology Action Group

ITAG is excited to launch a new pilot program designed specifically for the busy working professionals ITAG serves.

<h1>A New Opportunity to Share and Learn</h1>This is a series of online gatherings geared to enable small, focused groups of IT professionals to share and collaborate. We are calling this new offering Tech Together – because that’s exactly what it is all about. We are excited to bring tech professionals together to collectively work through IT issues and challenges.<h2>Tech Together: 3rd Wednesday of the Month</h2>Starting in October and running through December 2021, Tech Together will meet online, over Zoom, on the third Wednesday of every month at 8 AM ET. The topics for these small-group discussions will be specific to IT and the daily challenges our professionals face at work.The format will be a brief introduction to a particular topic from a local industry leader, followed by a candid, round-table discussion of the issue. The point of the conversation will be to share ideas, best practices, potential solutions, and tips for overcoming common hurdles.Each working/meeting session is 45-minutes long. The meetings will be kept to that schedule so they do not cut into what is likely to be a busy work day.The schedule for meetings is set out below:<ul><li>Wednesday, October 20th at 8 AM – Ransomware: Lessons Learned – How to respond, limit its damage, and prevent it from disrupting your people, led by Erik Gudmundson, Pegasus Technologies</li></ul><ul><li>Wednesday, November 17th at 8 AM – Maximizing Success with a Managed IT Services Provider (MSP) – Discussion on secrets and best practices, led by Greg Black, Premier Technology Group </li></ul><ul><li>Wednesday, December 15th at 8 AM – Year-End Reviews –Tips and best practices for technical leaders to prepare for year-end reviews, led by Lisa Van Ess, Magic Hat Consulting (Scroll down for more details)</li></ul>The attendee list will deliberately be kept small. No more than 15 people will be able to attend any monthly gathering. Spots will go on a first come/first served basis. The idea is to limit the group size so that meaningful, in-depth conversations between working professionals flourish. This is an interactive setting so feel free to activate your camera.The cost to attend a Tech Together meeting will be $5. That “buy me a coffee” amount helps the ITAG team ensure the registration numbers match the number of professionals attending the meeting.<h2>How Do I Register?</h2>You may register for more than 1 session but each session requires a separate ticket. Click the green "Tickets" button and then select the corresponding meeting date(s). Complete all information as required. A Zoom link will be included in your confirmation as well as reminder emails that will be sent to the address provided at registration. We look forward to sharing, working, and learning with you as we Tech Together over the coming months.
