Test Leadership Congress 2020 - Vote of Thanks

With the permission of Anna Royzman, I wrote and shared the below Vote of Thanks note for Test Leadership Congress 2020 vote on 09th October 2020.

Hello All,


On behalf of Test Masters Academy, I express my vote of thanks with gratitude to the conference chair, organizers, sponsors, speakers, facilitators, and support. I thank @Anna Royzman and her team for giving us the engaging and educative conferencing hours. 

When I recollect the moments and calendar, it will not be a happy story without thanking the people who registered and eventually became the conference. The 47 days of the virtual conference having 179 hours of live streaming is not an ordinary conference story. 

Maybe none of us would have imagined that we will be attending a virtual conference from home for 179 hours or close to 7.5 days. It is a story to be said and embraced with celebration.  

I thank all the attendees, speakers, facilitators, and support for giving your time and making this conference happen and successful. I will remember this conference for all time! I have motivational, influencing, and happy stories to tell from this conference.

Today the Test Leadership Congress 2020 officially comes to an end, and I convey my regards to you all for being part of it. This conference has accomplished the purpose of it, and I happily share a few journey data with you all.
