What are
the primary technology trends that will shape the work of software
development leaders over the next two to five years? Will Web
Services, large software packages, XML Standards, open source,
Service-Oriented Architectures, Business Intelligence, and Alternate
Platforms affect us? What else should we be looking at?
We are proud
to have a very distinguished panel of speakers to discuss this
topic from a variety of perspectives. Where are the opportunities
for software from an investor and analyst perspective? Where
will we likely see innovation and adoption? What's really happening
in large organizations from a CTO's perspective?
This will
be the T-SIG's biggest event of the year. Come participate in
the discussion as well. This promises to be a great event.
