Meetup 14: Q&A with Ben Marks, Fulfillment in Ecommerce, REI Ecommerce Report

Hey Folks,

The next Magento Meetup is scheduled for Tuesday, 15th of March at 7pm sponsored by Scurri.com

We are holding the meetup at Monsoon Consulting located at 1 Terminus Mills, Clonskeagh, Dublin 6. For those driving there will be limited car parking in front and behind the office and then on-street parking is available near Ashtons pub.

Doors at 7:00 for a 7:30 start.

As well as the great roster of speakers, we also hope to have a lot of the Magento team who are based in Dublin in attendance, so it will be an opportunity to speak with them. I'm particularly excited to have Ben Marks from Magento flying in to take part in a Magento business and Magento 2 Q&A session.

So here's the lineup.

7:30 - 8:00: 'Streamlining Delivery to Meet Customers Expectations'
