Change of Date for Dublin Event
Hi Everyone,
We have decided to change the Event to next Friday 28th because we have all caught a stomach bug at the office and we are worried we are all contagious. So we have amended the venue info and informed all registered ticket holders.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused but this is actually more for your benefit because you do not want what we have.
All tickets remain valid and speakers, sponsors and companies will remain for the date as planned. We have also gone for a later time which will suit people better. See you all on the 28th!! Thanks

Dial2Do is a phone-service for drivers. It lets you get things done safely and conveniently by just using your voice.
