Oh! Tweet us if you want to present a talk, have a workshop you want to run, a speaker you'd love to hear from or a topic you'd like to see. And join us (& lots of other PMs and non-PMs) on Digital Edmonton slack space. DM us your email if you'd like us to send you an invite! ✌
"There is no past, there is no future, there is only the present that matters." Bold statement from St Augustine! Explanation - The past is your memory, and something you can do nothing about. The future hasn't happened yet, so the *present* is what you need to worry about.

Wednesday? That's today! We kick off the program at 6pm. That's 20 mins to think of time-travel related puns, jokes and gifs. You all know what a TARDIS is, right?
