Keynote

This keynote session tells the story of Lewis’ experience joining Big Blue IBM at just eighteen years old. He will cover his experiences, why he decided to join,

and why your organisation along with others in the industry, should advocate for early careers joining IBM z/OS teams.

Lewis will expose his thoughts and experiences of joining and his take on the support and mentorship given in the last 3 years and why it has given him the thirst he has today to soak up as much IBM Z knowledge as humanly possible.
