Meet Boot Camp Cape Cod Keynote Speaker, Trish Kennedy from BackOffice Associates®

Written by: Leslie Fishlock // February 25th, 2010 // News

It’s always nice to find a real “geek girl” to address…well…300 geek girls and give them some awesome praise and support. And we are slap-happy to announce that Trish Kennedy of BackOffice Associates® will be our Keynote Speaker for Boot Camp Cape Cod 2010 on March 6th in Hyannis sponsored by The Community Bank.

If this does not move you right now, well consider this. Trish is the CEO of BackOffice Associates, LLC (BOA), a big – er, huge – fish in a small pond. Headquartered in South Harwich, Massachusetts, BackOffice Associates® is a global corporation with additional offices in the United Kingdom, Australia, India, Singapore and Mexico. Founded in 1996, BackOffice Associates® is the leading provider of data migration and data governance solutions for SAP® customers.

Suffice it to say, they are a top-notch company in the technology data field and we are very fortunate to have Trish speak. In addition, BackOffice Associates® has been a committed and loyal sponsor of Geek Girl Camp since its inception 2 years ago. Trish and her company take Social Responsibility to a higher level, and we appreciate their support throughout the years. Without support from companies like hers, we would not be able to operate such a power-packed event here on Cape Cod.

I think you will all find Trish to be a tremendous speaker, a no-holds barred get straight-to-the-point personality which is always refreshing, and most of all, a successful woman in technology to be proud of. And Lord knows we need more role models like Trish for all women in technology.

We are very proud of her in all her personal and professional success.

Trish, welcome to Geek Girl Boot Camp 2010. You are at home here. With the rest of us geeks.

Many thanks to The Community Bank for sponsoring the Keynote. The Community Bank has also been a strong supporter and sponsor of Geek Girl Camp since we started. They have also relied on the experience and professionalism of the Geek Girls as speakers through their highly touted Women’s Business Exchange Seminars which attract dynamic and successful women all over Cape Cod and the South Shore. The Community Bank is the original “Community” Bank, and the bank Geek Girl uses and trusts as their bank.
