On 22nd September, David Terrar and Richard Messik are holding a Cloud Advocates event at Mimecast’s offices in London. I was there a few weeks ago, recording the company’s CFO talking about cloud accounting using NetSuite.

I’ll be attending virtually via a Skype link, delivering a new presentation based on my CIMA discussion. Attending in this manner will be a good demonstration of the strengths and weaknesses of some current technologies.
As usual, I’ll post the presentation to Slideshare.
