Successful 2nd Annual International Publications Meeting

itSMF Publishing held its very successful, second annual
international publishing meeting in Warsaw, Poland, from April 23rd
through the 27th. Publishing representatives from chapters around
the globe met to discuss such vital areas as author acquisition, marketing,
translations, social media, media platforms and several other topics. Each portfolio owner will communicate the results of he meeting to the publishing representatives, who will now develop those ideas as members of working groups.

The itSMF Poland chapter, under the leadership of
Chairman Bartosz Gorcynski, who is also a member of the Editorial Advisory
Taskforce, served as hosts for the meeting at the Hotel Gromada.  Bartosz enjoyed the help of his lovely wife Paulina Górczynska and other chapter members, who made the delegates’ stay a pleasure.
