The blueAPACHE team started our 2020 events calendar off in style, enjoying the Australian Open and hosting some special guests.

Did this post mention any blueAPACHE services directly?No, this is a relationship and events post rather than a service update; readers looking for details of blueAPACHE's actual service delivery should see the emPOWER pillar pages and service pages linked from the main site rather than this article.
