Hi everyone



It’s a while since we ‘spoke’ and we have been firming up plans for the
future of the TNE-SIG, revising the Steering Committee membership, as well
as looking at events to attend next year for more discussions. More
information to come on that soon, but in the meantime I wanted to highlight
an education technology workshop being run by GÉANT next month in Budapest.



Further information is below – we hope you can attend!



Kind regards

Esther
