Kansas City, MO — The Business Technology Association (BTA) will hold its first event of 2022, Spring Break, hosted by BTA Southeast, April 1-2, at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort in Orlando, Florida.

The event will begin at 8 a.m. on Friday, April 1, with breakfast, followed by welcoming comments and the first educational session, “Visual Edge’s Managed IT Services Strategy,” led by David Ramos of Visual Edge IT. A break, giving attendees time to visit with peers and exhibiting sponsors, will follow. Breaks between sessions on both days will also give attendees additional networking time. The keynote, “Service is a Superpower,” will follow.
