Good morning and welcome to this week’s episode of the #FridayTechRoundUp

Also, we shoutout TLA Black Women in Tech for their new book encouraging black women to pursue a career in tech, our ECS Academy that is still open for applications and announce our next Amazon Connect Immersion Lab, in partnership with AWS, on the 28th and 29th September.
