VeeamON2017 – Goodbye New Orleans

See you in Chicago

Thank you all who attended the convention in NOLA for the great time. Kudos to all members of the Veeam Team who helped making this event possible.

What a great experience to come together with all you Veeam geeks. In the last 3 days we’ve had a good time with all of you. Especially with the group from Germany, Austria, France, the US and Australia (no worries about the beer on my shoes, mate!) 😉

The next VeeamON will be held in Chicago between May 12th and May 17th 2018. Hope to see you there again.
