Monday Newcomers Lunch
The Newcomers Lunch, sponsored by Verisign, will be held at 12:00 p.m. in
the Gold meeting room (Banquet Level) on October 17th. This lunch is held
especially for our newcomers to meet veteran NANOG colleagues and to become
more familiar with NANOG meetings and traditions – we encourage you to
attend! Each lunch table will be hosted by a NANOG Mentor who will provide
an overview of a typical NANOG meeting. The lunch will provide Newcomers
an opportunity to discuss NANOG, network with NANOG leadership (past and
present), and with each other. Simply stated, it is a time for NANOG
networking and finding answers to any questions you may have.
This event is by invitation only; you should receive a calendar invite from
events(a)nanog.org by Noon Central, Sunday, October 16, 2016 – if you do not
have the invitation by then please let us know by emailing
nanog-support(a)nanog.org.
