@Ravikishore Thanks for joining us! A pdf of the PowerPoint (along with a link to the workshop recording) is circulated to everyone that registers after the event. The email for everyone that attended the EMEA event was sent out this morning, If you attended the APAC event, this will be sent out later this week.

@shanf, we circulate the recordings to everyone that registers for the event. It just takes us a short time to process. The EMEA event recording was circulated to everyone that registered in an email earlier today, and the APAC recording will be circulated later this week. 

If you didn't register but would like to attend a future session we have a workshop covering the latest Viya version in December.
If you're interested in Viya 3.5, then you can find a post and registration links for the upcoming event on this message board.
