Axceler Opens in Sydney Australia
This past week I was able to travel to Sydney, Australia to participate as a speaker and expert panelist at the Australia SharePoint Conference. Axceler was onsite as a sponsor, and also celebrated the opening of our new office in North Sydney. Joining me for the event from the Seattle office was Garry Smith, GM of the echo products at Axceler, as well as Sergio Otoya, Architect and Project Manager of our migration development team, who is based out of Sydney. Also on site was the newest member of the Axceler team in Sydney, Vijay Raghvani, who leads our channel sales and business development efforts in the region.
The event brought in more than 500 SharePoint professionals, and some of the leading ISVs and integrators serving the region. My session at the event was a business user topic that walked the 100+ attendees through the basics of metadata -- what it is, where you can find it, and why it is important to your SharePoint strategy. The full title is "Looking Under the Hood: How Your Metadata Strategy Impacts Everything You Do" and the slides are below:
It was a tremendous week in Sydney with dozens of partner and customer introductions, and a great start for Axceler in the region. We're all looking forward to doing more in Australia and New Zealand this year.
I'm now in Wellington preparing to attend the speaker's dinner for the New Zealand SharePoint Conference, delivering the same topic as above. Hope to see you there!
