Come join the Irvine Admin, Developer and Women in Tech group as we host "A Night with Peter Coffee". He will be presenting on the Fifth Industrial Revolution where we see the intersection of humans and machines working together with purpose. If you don't know who Peter Coffee is and are wondering why should I attend, let me tell you a little about him. Peter Coffee is VP of Strategic Research at Salesforce, where he has spent time with customers and partners to predict what's next in technology since 2007. Prior to Salesforce, Peter spent 18 years with eWeek (Formerly PC Week), where he reviewed software development tools and methods and wrote columns on emerging technologies and professional community issues. We are very fortunate to have him as a speaker in our group and we highly recommend that you attend this meeting.
Please note this is a joint event with WIT and Admin groups so you will be re-directed to register on the WIT OC page.
