Who: Tech

What: Field Day

When: Past

Location: Silicon Valley

The first ever Gestalt IT Tech Field Day has come and gone, and what an event it was! This page includes archived information about the first Tech Field Day, held on November 12 and 13, 2009 in and around San Jose, CA.

This unique event brought together innovative IT product vendors and independent thought leaders, allowing them to get to know one another. It was a forum for engagement, education, hands-on experience, and feedback.
