Meet Stuart Applegate - Aussie SBS MVP

Stuart Applegate

Who are the Australian SBS MVPs? Don't even know what an MVP is? Well here's your chance to find out.

The Microsoft Most Valuable Professional award is given to select individuals around the globe in recognition of their voluntary involvement & leadership in technical forums - both on & offline. They're a diverse bunch but all have one thing in a common - a deep commitment to community and a willingness to help others.

This is the first in a series of profiles on the six Australian SBS MVPs - folks who time & again have gone out of their way to help partners & customers understand the wonderful world of Small Business Server. Each week in the lead-up to the launch of Small Business Server 2008 I'll feature a different MVP.

So without further ado, meet Stuart. Aside from his business & MVP duties, Stuart is also an SBSC & the driving force behind SBS User Group Brisbane, Inc - a monthly catch-up of committed SBSers who come together to talk all things Small Business Server & more.
