We intended to present leading experts on the subjects our members had informed us most concerned them when related to the ever increasing importance of Information Technology to today's economy.  From the remarks we heard afterwards we were successful.

Each of the experts made a short fifteen minute presentation/lecture on their special subject, explaining what they do, why they do it and for whom they do it, thereby introducing all of our guests to an in-depth overview of each of our chosen subjects for the discussion.  After our experts had introduced themselves and their expertise, they then formed a panel and for one and a half  hours over a business luncheon they answered the questions of our guests in our usual discussion format.

In the past we have presented speakers from then unknown organizations like Novell, Cisco Systems, Commerce One and Brio Technology, etc. - this year there are also some names you may not have heard of, but we assure you that you will not be disappointed with the information they can provide and there is probably no better way to keep yourself up to date.

Some of the comments we received from the guests after the meeting:

"Good information -  very helpful and meaningful! Great meeting!"
