Join Matthew Skelton and Victoria Morgan Smith, co-authors of the book Internal Tech Conferences: Accelerate Multi-team Learning, for a Container Solutions webinar: “WTF are Internal Tech Conferences“, hosted by Jamie Dobson.

The pace of change in IT means that cross-department learning is essential, and many organisations have found that an internal tech conference is an excellent way to achieve this.
