It was great meeting up with the Auckland Network committee: Old friends and many new faces : )
Learned about the good activities the Network is organising: Project X, Technical talks and visits. YPS will organise the PATW NZ Final.
Congratulations to Julia who is now taking on a bigger role: Vice Chairperson for the ANZ Young Professionals Campaign!!
