    Hello, I attended this event and it was awesome. Great to see many people visit me in the GITCA Booth. For anyone who missed out, the site is still open for a further 90 days to look at the resources. For those who missed the live event this year, if this is done again, I recommend you make the time to attend. Michael Jenkin - APAC GITCA Chairman, Mickyj.com
