Bethesda, Maryland – January 16, 2014 — The ASCII Group, a membership-based community of independent MSPs, VARs and Solution Providers, is pleased to announce the upcoming dates and locations for its 2014 IT SMB Success Summit Series. The eight city conference tour is expected to draw more than 1,600 solution providers, leading technology vendors, and industry experts.
