Free, one-day iNSPIRE 2012 event in Costa Mesa will give attendees front-row access to experts and solutions for the IBM i platform.

IBM Business Partners Profound Logic Software, inFORM Decisions, and Vision Solutions have announced they will sponsor a free, one-day educational event in Southern California exclusively for IBM i customers.

iNSPIRE 2012 will take place Friday, June 22, at the IBM Center in Costa Mesa, California. Attendees of this no-cost event will enjoy a complimentary lunch and attend sessions with industry experts that include Susan Gantner and Jon Paris from Partner400 and IBM’s Isabelle Sato. To register, click here by June 15, 2012.

“Profound Logic is excited to team up with inFORM Decisions and Vision Solutions for this event,” says Alex Roytman, Profound Logic CEO. “We look forward to giving the IBM i community in Southern California the opportunity to meet thought-leaders and learn about solutions and strategies to remain successful on the platform for years to come.”

The three IBM partners say they came together with the idea of a tech day when they realized their customers were struggling with similar challenges. “We believe the IBM i is an incredible platform,” says Alex Rodriguez, Business Development manager at inFORM Decisions. “We also know that many companies can extend the value of their IBM i investment with tools they may not even know are available. At iNSPIRE 2012, our goal is to show customers how they can easily and effectively protect, manage, and modernize their IBM i data, documents and applications.”

In addition to demonstrating how to address common business needs like application modernization, document management, and high availability, the speakers at iNPSIRE 2012 will also discuss the benefits of using open source and native IBM i tools. Additionally, a representative from IBM will be on hand to cover what’s new for the platform.

Space for the iNSPIRE 2012 Tech Day is limited, and registration for the event will close on June 15. Sign up today and learn more by clicking here.
