InterSystems is proud to offer free InterSystems Certification exam attempts to all attendees of InterSystems Virtual Summit 2020. The one free exam attempt will be made available to all registered attendees and can be used at any time until December 31, 2020.

This is our standard online exam service with online proctoring that is normally priced at $150 per attempt. 

It's a wrap!    All of the focus sessions have aired now.  Of course, all of our 102 pre-recorded focus sessions are available on-demand now, so you can watch any and all of them, even if you missed the opportunity for live Q&A.

Speaking of live Q&A - we've had 6 live sessions, and these too are available for you to watch.  I wrote about this, and how your questions make us better, in a separate blog article. 

Smart Factory Starter Pack   One highlight that got a lot of attention today was the release of the InterSystems IRIS Smart Factory Starter Pack on OpenExchange.

Hey Developers,

We remind you about a great opportunity to make a live conversation with InterSystems Product Managers Team on Live Q&A Sessions at Virtual Summit 2020! 

🗓 TODAY at 12:40 PM EDT at https://intersystems.6connex.com/event/virtual-summit/en-us/contents/43…

And now we've added more options to make it even easier for you to ask questions upfront:

✅ Submit your questions in the comments to this post

✅ Submit your question to our Discord Channel: discord.gg/WqVjtD

✅ Submit your questions to VS2020questions@InterSystems.com

✅ Send your question personally to @Anastasia Dyubaylo or @Evgeny Shvarov in Direct Messages on the community

✅ Submit your question to Q&A Chat on the conference platform during the session 

Note: We will pass all your questions to the PM team, and you'll receive answers during the Live Q&A Sessions.

I've been impressed at the quality of the questions at our live Q&A sessions!  

These sessions were meant as a way for you to ask anything you want (I call this playing "stump the chumps").

They're all recorded and available for review later; here're the links:

• Live Q&A session 1 - 26 Oct 11:40PM EST 
• Live Q&A session 2 - 27 Oct 12:40PM EST 
• Live Q&A session 3 - 27 Oct 11:40PM EST

• Live Q&A session 5 - 28 Oct 11:40PM EST 

It's not too late to join the last one live!

We've just finished the second day of focus sessions - with a LOT of great content!  With parallel tracks, it's hard to keep up - but one advantage of a virtual conference is that you can watch anything you missed on-demand!

In yesterday's blog (Highlights of Day 1), I covered most of the special announcements such as InterSystems IRIS Adaptive Analytics and the FHIR Accelerator Service, so time to turn to a few broader strategic themes today.

The second week of Virtual Summit 2020 kicked off with the first day of focus sessions. We covered a LOT of great content - 38 sessions across a wide range of subjects. I thought it would be valuable to recap and review some of the bigger announcements and talking points.

 IntegratedML  Following the announcement of global availability for IntegratedML, this week highlights IntegratedML in multiple sessions.

Could Global Summit be only a few days away? We've hit a record for attendance this year, and, if you aren't based in Boston, we're expecting summer-like weather.
