#!SUITS

What is working in the ICT industry like? Find out for yourself as SUITS takes you on a journey to discover life at various companies in the Sydney CBD.

This year, we’ll be visiting our major sponsor Optiver, a finance company with a huge emphasis in IT. Good people is what makes everything come together as market makers in derivatives trading over Australian, Asian and European markets.

No journey is complete without visiting a software company. We’ll also be spending some time with Atlassian, an agile software development company that’s proud to be open and with “no bullshit”. They build collaboration and developer tools that’s useful and simply works.

Meanwhile, I’m trying to see if we can visit Macquarie Bank’s amazing new building at King Street Wharf, 1 Shelley Street, in the City!

Agenda and registration is after the break. If you have previously registered with me for the event before it’s been postponed, please re-register so that I can get a better understanding of your needs.

Event: A trip to discover Optiver, Atlassian and the new Google-plex

Urgent Notice: This event has has been postponed to the mid-semester break, 29 September, 2009.

Sorry guys, I’m pushing this back a bit because I didn’t quite get the numbers I was expecting. (Why do people go on holidays during the break?) The reason why I’d like this to be more accessible to everyone is because all of Optiver and Atlassian and Google have put in so much to make this a wonderful day, and I would like to share his opportunity with as many people as possible.

So, I’ll keep you updated with any news about this event via Facebook and the SUITS Newsletter and you can keep track of SUITS events via our Google calendar, which you’ll find on our website, http://www.suits.org.au/

By the way, if you’re not getting the newsletters you can let our IT guy (Tim) know by email suits@it.usyd.edu.au
