Oracle OpenWorld 2017 Networking Opportunity Events #OOW17

Oracle Openworld and JavaONE 2017 Banner Image
Register for Oracle Openworld and JavaONE 2017 https://www.oracle.com/openworld/index.html

Where I can keep track of the special events (note: these are not “parties” as so many people are misled to believe – you should expect to be contacted by dozens of sales and account professionals at each event) at OOW.  To attend one of these events:

  1. You’re registered as an OpenWorld Attendee.
  2. You’re either a prospect, customer, or goodwill contact for the host. That means you actually contact the host and ask to attend before OOW.
  3. You visit the host’s booth at OpenWorld in order to pick up whatever is required for entry and get to know what the host actually does.
  4. Do not just show up at the event and attempt to “crash” it – fair warning. You will be sold Oracle products and consulting, and like it, and start telling all your friends about it and be assimilated.

From 2016 – still being confirmed:

Visit all those vendors and make them feel welcomed this year!
