With this post I want to highlight the community again as we held our 1st in-person Veeam User Group event in Cologne yesterday.

 

This was a curious one for us, because it was the first time we rotated and went way north in Germany and leave our sweet South and Southwest spot. 

However, it turned out we almost had 60 in-person attendees and only 4 no show attendees which is a huge success and the biggest success in our eyes. This means the Veeam community is really working, people love to attend the VUGs and get together. We couldn’t be more proud !

A HUGE THANK YOU to our sponsor Scality who made sure we can have such an amazing venue, food, catering, a barista (!) and drinks throughout the day. A simple amazing effort which we highly appreciate ! Furthermore a huge thank you to Veeam, especially to everyone who supports the Veeam Usergroup behind the scenes. We also had a massive representation from the german Veeam100 people which is always a blessing to see !

Special thanks also go out to all presenters, you made the time meaningful with your content and we highly appreciate it. ​@HannesK  , ​@MarvinMichalski  , ​@MatzeB , ​@lukas.k 

Again a big thank you to ​@HannesK withstanding all the questions in the AMA session, we know it’s always special because so many topics and so many questions are being raised, but you always handle this with such an ease and charm!
