This weekend, Telerik sponsored the SharePoint Saturday event in Brisbane, Australia (#SPSBNE). The terrible day of Rapture (Thousands said goodbye to family and friends ahead of 6pm Saturday deadline) was on this day and it was all over the news.

I found it was...

TechEd 2011 was another great event.  We had a lot of traffic at the Telerik booth, giving away a huge amount of T-Shirts and Ninja head stress balls, showed a ton of demos of our software, and had great conversations with not only customers but people discerning what to buy.

Telerik sponsored and exhibited at the Fifth anniversary Next-generation testing conference which was organized by Unicom and took place in the Thistle Marble Arch Hotel, London. Once again we were able to impress attendees with the revolutionary UI, ease of use and advanced features the Test Studio offers. Note quite surprisingly we also met some faithful Telerik customers & fans there too. Thanks to everyone who stopped by our...
