Announcement: Collaboration University 2009 Keynote Speakers!
Category Collaboration UniversityI'm pleased to welcome two new faces to Collaboration University 2009 to help us kick off the most exciting year we've ever had for CU! With Sametime 8.5, Connections 2.5, and Quickr 8.2 all hitting the streets this year - and with the major technology changes there and in the near future, it's great to have IBMers back this year to keynote the event and give us a heads-up on Lotus's strategy in the Web 2.0 space.
| In Chicago, we'll hear from Louis Richardson, Lotus Worldwide Sales Executive for Lotus Collaborative Document Services. Louis, at IBM the past five years, has been instrumental in helping get the word out about Collaboration University inside IBM, where all the events, dates and even links on the IBM website are helpful. I've known Louis for several years and know he will be an exciting and insightful speaker. Besides, anyone who gives me a picture on a sailboat has to be cool. |
| In London, we're joined by Darren Adams, Messaging and Collaboration Business Unit Executive for North East Europe. Which, as it turns out, includes the UK, Ireland, Switzerland and Austria (fairly south and west for northeast!). Many of you know Darren from his blog at http://www.dadams.co.uk where, among other things, he shares his insights on Lotus software. Darren was recently promoted to this very long title, so please congratulate him when you see him in London! Dareen's a long time friend of Collaboration University, having helped out with arrangements a little more each year. |
Please join us in Chicago and London to learn about the strategy and direction of Lotus's Web 2.0 lineup of software - Quickr, Sametime and Connections!
