Pending topics to discuss
- Lab training proposed by Glenn
- Is there enough interest in BNUG membership to run one of these?
- Where could we run this?
- [steve-glenn]Should we see if MassBay can host this? (would need a classroom we can use & secure for two+ whole days); if acceptable I(steve) can check w/Tony.
- (Could use Lexington Community Center but would need to give them % of profits and might have difficulty scheduling the event as they are a busy center!)
- [glenn]Could Microsoft Burlington host this?
- Other places?
Note
If you are an exec board member and you would like a login to make changes here, let me (Steve) know.
Words to use when trying to get a company to speak at our meetings
| Meeting intent | Not sales. Technology. Show yourself (company) as an expert in a given space by describing it to our attendees; give your software/equipment as an example. |
| Who goes to our meetings? | a combination of end-users, company IT support engineers, students at MassBay, and more |
| Benefits of presenting | Meet face-to-face potential users/promoters of your product/software. Promotion by way of video taken and posted for others to see and for you to use. |
| Where can I find more info? | See BNUG website http://bnug.org/speaker-info.html |
