Join CirrusHQ at the Cloud Services in the Public Sector Virtual Conference – 15/16 September

News home

CirrusHQ are proud to be Sponsoring this year’s ‘Cloud Services in the Public Sector’ conference which for the first time will be held fully virtual.

This conference focuses on the transition to Cloud, and the importance and implications of the Scottish Government’s Digital Strategy – and the ‘Cloud First’ approach. Those attending the conference can expect to hear discussion and insight into how organisations are responding to this, what approaches they are taking, and how partnerships with Cloud specialists such as CirrusHQ can accelerate that journey.

The event, which takes place on September 15th 2020 to September 16th 2020, is free to attend for public sector organisations and delegates and will be delivered on a cloud based, secure platform featuring keynote speakers including Ross Lyon, Transformation Manager – Cloud First within the Scottish Government.

CirrusHQ will be presenting a panel event on Day 1, 15th September, with the University of Oxford entitled  “From Legacy to Cloud First: the Journey from Idea to Delivery – The University of Oxford’s Gardens, Libraries and Museums brought to life online!” featuring Anjanesh Babu and Marcus Cheetham from the University, along with Peter Jackson and Muhil Vannan from CirrusHQ. This interactive presentation will feature audience questions and panel discussions and cover the journey the University undertook to bring the collections online to a AWS cloud platform with CirrusHQ.

Jan Lucas, Chief Commercial Officer at CirrusHQ commented “We are delighted to be sponsoring this event again this year, which given the impact of COVID-19 only underlines the importance of a Cloud First strategy over traditional approaches. It’s also an honour for us to be partnering with the University of Oxford to deliver one of the main live events featuring our collaboration to bring the University’s Gardens, Libraries and Museums to life on the AWS Cloud. CirrusHQ have unrivalled skills and experience helping organisations in the public and private sector unlock the scale and innovation of the Public Cloud – and we are excited to demonstrate this at the event.”
