ICCA Boston Panel Discussion on Microsoft Technologies.


It looks like I’m going to be making an appearance at this month’s ICCA Boston meeting.  They’re doing a panel discussion entitled “Microsoft Technology: What does it mean to your clients?” and I’m going to be a panelist.

Microsoft Technology: What does it mean to your clients?


Clients demand ever higher levels of productivity, business value, and technology re-use from their software investments. To meet this demand, consultants need to understand how and why vendor technologies are evolving, the opportunities they offer and the pitfalls they include.


One major technology vendor is Microsoft. Join us in a panel discussion that will illuminate Microsoft’s strategic direction, survey their major technologies, and explore, in response to your questions, specific issues. With this knowledge you’ll be able to uncover new opportunities and leverage Microsoft technologies to provide greater value to your clients.


The session will cover:


  • Real world experiences using Microsoft technologies to deliver successful engagements
  • Enabling technologies such as .Net, SharePoint, Office, and SQL Server
  • Future Microsoft technologies including Windows Communications Foundation, Windows Workflow Foundation, “Office 12”, and Windows “Vista”


Whether or not you currently use Microsoft technology in your practice, this discussion will provide powerful insights into the technology you encounter daily.


Attend this interactive session and learn how you can be more successful. Take away technical references you can use to explore topics of interest to your clients.


Our panelists have more than 75 years of collective software experience, most of it on Microsoft technology, and…they have lived to tell about it.
