I have been a FEATURED MEMBER of IBM DESTINATION z - z SYSTEMS COMMUNITY.

Got featured in the IBM Systems magazine, IBM Z as a 2020 First-Time IBM Z Champion

Got featured in IBM’s “Champions in Action” series as a first time IBM Champion for Z

Got featured in the "What Makes an IBM Champion" series video from IBM

Got featured in the "IBM Champions: 2021 Tech Trends and Disruptions" series video from IBM; in the video, the #IBMChampion stars share their views on tech trends and disruptions to track and look out for in 2021, from #modernization to #data. In the video, from data to mainframe, from modernization to the unpredictability of everything, the IBM Champions have some predictions about what to hope for and watch for in 2021.

It was an absolute honor and privilege for me to be a part of the 'zTalk with Reg Harbeck' podcast, "Subhasish Sarkar on Being Active as a Mainframer". This got published in the December 1, 2020 Z EXTRA Newsletter (powered by IBM Systems MEDIA). In the podcast, Reg Harbeck talks with me about how I stumbled into working on the mainframe, how I share my technical expertise and my interest in quantum computing.
