Hi Vicki, the GOVIS conference coming up in Wellington on 12-14 November may be of interest www.govis.org.nz. If you haven't already heard about it, GOVIS is attended by Government Information Systems Managers, system designers and decision makers. Having a presence at this annual conference would be one way for the Canterbury Software companies to network and raise their profile.
Just a thought!
