OGB Appreciation Day: People and Firsts

It’s that time of year where the Oracle community reflects on the year and thanks the Oracle ACE program and everyone from else from Oracle involved for their personal involvement and contributions.

Tim Hall kicked off this great initiative back in 2016 under the OTN (Oracle Technology Network) banner and this was repeated again in 2017/2018 under the ODC (Oracle Developer Community) moniker.

This year Tim started the OGB (Oracle GroundBreakers) Appreciation Day and for me I would like to celebrate the people and opportunities the Oracle ACE programmes provides.

This year I had a number of firsts, presenting on the unique Norwegian User Group cruise, presenting at the Bulgarian Oracle User Group, and a major highlight was attending the Oracle ACE Directors briefing prior to OOW (Oracle Open World).

Looking forward to hopefully some new firsts in 2020 #ThanksOGB
