This was a very successful event that was hosted, in part, by the Orion Lab. Lots of new and exciting things happening in the mainframe space, and some major announcements made tonight, including a new course being offered by the computer science department (Introduction to Enterprise Systems), and the announcement of the TechX lab opening downtown in May under the umbrella of Innovate Springfield!
#UISedu commemorated the 60th anniversary of the IBM mainframe which included a presentation by Lucas Sahn, IBM Z national skills leader for North America. The event provided students with an opportunity to connect with industry leaders. #Mainframe60 #TechHistory
