Just a little gratitude can unlock the fullness of life.

As we come off of this Thanksgiving holiday, we just want to say thank you – for being a part of our community, for lifting one another up in each of our journeys and for investing in yourself. Each year we are blown away by the magnitude of support from this amazing community. Industry and Government thought leaders sharing their time and knowledge at our events, in our training courses and making themselves accessible when we just need to pick their brain.

This year’s GAIN Conference was the ultimate representation of the power of community and dedication to learning. We know everyone misses that F2F (we can’t wait to be back in action with in-person events in 2022) but saw really great connections and community activity happening online. A huge shout out and congratulations to our 2021 GAINer Award Winners! Keep crushing it with those amazing campaigns!

Be sure to stay tuned for our 2022 calendar as its dropping next month.

As always, if you have any questions or comments we’d love to hear from you at info@gmarku.com.

The Cloud and the Future of Systems Integrators
December 10, 2021

Brought to you by Washington Technology

The evolution of computing in the government market has flowed from the mainframe to client server and now to the cloud.

Cloud computing as a concept and line of business is a decade old but it also is still in its infancy with a diverse and growing universe of opportunities as agencies put their focus on digitization and IT modernization.

In this Power Breakfast, Washington Technology will explore what the latest trends in cloud computing mean and how they are disrupting customers as well as government contractors.
