We are delighted to announce the next meeting of the WebSphere User Group, which will take place on 25th September 2012 at the Royal Society of Edinburgh. \r\nAs usual there will be no charge for this meeting and we are putting together what looks like being another very strong agenda. As well as the main meeting on the 25th, there will be an social gathering the night before which will provide an excellent opportunity for more networking.\r\n\r\nIf you're located in the south, don't be put off by the cost of travelling to Edinburgh - return flights to Edinburgh from London are usually under £60 with easyJet.
Provisional Agenda
Registration and Coffee begins from 8:30am, with the Chairman's Intro at 9:00am. The first session begins at 9:30am.
If you prefer a full Agenda listing with Abstracts and Speaker info, then you can view that here. Please note that this is both very long and also tends to get a lot more accurate in the days leading up to the event itself, once we're able to get hold of all the info we need!
