iMedia’s Chuck Titone shares, “The Sitecore Symposium 2014 was a very informative and enjoyable conference. The sessions especially, were very relevant to addressing many of the challenges our clients are facing. In addition to having the access into the engaging sessions, the conference provided the ability to network with Sitecore clients, partners and the Sitecore team.”
As one of the sponsors at the Sitecore Symposium, the iMedia logo was displayed prominently next to the conference registration booth.
iBrowse took this as an opportunity for a photo-op, along with many others over the course of 3 days. Conference attendees might have spotted him listening in on some of the sessions, networking alongside the iMedia team, or even relaxing by the pool before heading back to the airport.
The Sitecore Symposium was a great event full of learning and sharing with industry peers, and iMedia is looking forward to what’s in store for next year’s conference.
