Upcoming events: Public Sector SMB Partner Opportunities

Some upcoming events – described as follows:

“The UK Public Sector remains a significant market opportunity for Microsoft partners. Media coverage has focused on budget cuts and job losses but the reality is that Public Sector ICT budgets are forecast to grow over the coming 3-5 years in such sectors as Education, Health and Local Government. Much of this expenditure will focus on localisation of services, more effective use of shared services and rationalisation of infrastructure using virtualisation and cloud computing.
These sessions will show you how to: 1) Reach & engage local public sector organisations as a local business, 2) How Microsoft can support you, 3) Compete & make money from the Public Sector, 4) Leverage resources and tools from Microsoft to help engage this market, 5) Transition from selling OPEN licensing from the private into the public sector.
