The Most Epic Tweets from Epic UGM 2015
Epic Systems' users, employees and consultants tuned in for the classic television-themed Epic Users Group Meeting (UGM) 2015 at Epic headquarters in Verona, Wis., Aug. 31 - Sept. 3, and ever-cognizant to the event's intentionally over-the-top theme, Epic UGM Tweeters had a lot to say about what they saw, heard, ate, learned - and witnessed CEO Judy Faulkner wear (a Lucille Ball costume from "I Love Lucy").
"Decked out in pearls, a black and white polka dot dress, red slingback kitten heels and, of course, a towering ginger bouffant wig," according to Madison.com, Faulkner shared facts on Epic Systems, introduced "I Love Lucy" clips and focused on collaboration and action in her keynote.
