FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, Houston, TX, Monday, August 10th, 2009
EPS Software Corp. announces Markus Egger has been named a Microsoft Regional Director due to his active role speaking, writing, podcasting and blogging about software development using Microsoft tools and technologies. Microsoft Regional Directors aren't Microsoft employees--they are independent developers, architects, trainers, and other professionals who provide a vital link between Microsoft and the developer community.
Regional Directors are technical experts who are recognized by Microsoft to be the best in their field. These experts can provide other developers and business managers the insight and informed perspective they need to start developing .NET-connected software today--whether they need help learning about the .NET Framework, training developers, or implementing all aspects of a solution. Regional Directors are not only active within their own region, but internationally as well.
Currently there are only 112 Regional Directors world-wide. Markus is very honored to be chosen to be part of this highly regarded group.
