Dear Mr. Petrick:
Wireless technology is booming and wireless LANs are producing the loudest boom yet forever changing the way companies work. Beginning in the year 2000, wireless LANs are helping companies worldwide by making employees more productive and business more efficient. Because of this recent trend, ACI is producing DEPLOYING WIRELESS LANS, a conference being held on October 25-27, 2000 in Dallas.
We are currently in search of industry experts to provide intelligent and useful information to the attendees. We are pleased to invite you to participate in the event.
DEPLOYING wireless lans is a two-day event providing tactical and intelligent knowledge on how to implement wireless local area networks in healthcare entities, educational institutions and corporations. We are looking for case studies – organizations who are or who have been involved in an implementation of wireless LANs – and industry experts to present and discuss the financial and technological issues and trends involved.
The following are participation options:
§ General Speaker: 45-minute presentation on either day of the conference (Oct. 25-26, 2000, 14 slots).
§ Panelist: 45-minutes of a panel discussion with other industry leaders (Oct. 25, 2000, 4 slots).
