We’re trying to get on the road more to meet both as many of our existing users, but also to meet other companies who share our vision on creating great products, and making the user experience as good as possible. So next month, November 18th, we’re going to be at the Dublin SaaS meet-up where with talks from other entrepreneurs and leaders in SaaS, we hope to meet plenty of people, and learn from each other.

How to Find the Meet-Up: 2nd Floor, Stephen Court, 18-21 St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2
