Gil Kirkpatrick, Quest chief architect and conference founder

“TEC began more than a decade ago as a forum for IT pros to expand their skills and expertise, while networking closely with Microsoft technology leadership and top industry experts. All these years later, its charter remains the same – albeit with expanded technology coverage to enable powerful cross-training and even greater advantage for the delegates.”
