If you live in the Toronto area, work with SharePoint, and will be around this coming weekend then I have a can’t miss event for you. This Saturday, the 11th, there will be a SharePoint Saturday event in Toronto. SharePoint Saturdays are taking place each week across North America and are a phenomenal way to get top notch information from top flight speakers as well as network with other folks active with SharePoint in your area. I have the opportunity to speak at one recently here in North Carolina and it was a great. I highly encourage you to check out.
The following is a message from SharePoint guru, all around great guy, and event organizer Kanwal Kipple:
“If you are not familiar with SharePoint Saturday events, they are free, community-focused SharePoint events dedicated to educating and engaging members of the local technical community.
We are excited to announce that the first-ever SharePoint Saturday Toronto event is being held in Toronto on July 11th, 2009.
