On Sept. 15, AITP Las Vegas will bring together all Las Vegas IT organizations for an “Association of Associations Mixer.”  The last mixer of this kind was attended by over 100 of Las Vegas’ IT practitioners, managers, vendors and partners. Each association will have the opportunity to introduce their organizations to the Las Vegas IT Community. It will give all the members and nonmembers of each organization the ability  to better understand what groups and associations are out there.
