Kickoff for Iasta reSource

Add comment May 14th, 2007 David Bush - Iasta

Today begins the first day of the first users conference for Iasta. This is very exciting for us as we have pulled, pushed and dragged our way to a point where we can actually block over 150 room nights in the one of the best hotels in Indianapolis, right in the heart of race season.

The conference starts casually today with about 2/3 of the attendees arriving for advanced training and one on one interaction with our operations managers. This is going to be a great opportunity to work with clients that still have parts of SmartSource that they have not yet begun to utilize. I look forward to having detailed discussions with our client base over the next few days to get a good feeling for our performance both good and bad.

There is no question that this was a lot of work to put together almost 72 hours of detail and attendees arriving from multiple continents. I think we did a pretty good job with the planning and agenda but at this point we have “Crossed the Rubicon” and we no longer can control much of what will happen, including the weather!

Tomorrow will be very interesting with presentations from CXOs, our clients and even a famous blogger or two.
