EVENTS

20th - 22th November 2001, Olympia, London.

This enterprise level event is now in its eighth successful year and continues to focus on the latest issues affecting every Windows based enterprise network, from Windows 95 to 2000. By extensively surveying our audience we have developed the Windows eNTerprise event to meet the needs of both exhibitors and visitors. Our research has highlighted six key issues that are crucial to the enterprise. These issues will form the distinct technology Micro-Shows, which make up Windows Enterprise, enabling visitors to pin-point exactly the issues affecting them and giving exhibitors a unique audience of relevant IT decision-makers.

 

10th - 11th October 2001, Olympia, London. Because we recognise the key to a successful online presence does not just lie in the hands of one person, the Webmaster event is evolving and will this year incorporate Web Strategy. These two events will target the key participants in a company’s use of Internet technology. Each event targets either the strategic business decision-makers in the boardroom to the hands on technical and creative professionals who specify, recommend and use your products. Webmaster and Web Strategy put you in front of these key influencers at every stage of their procurement process. Bringing together the webmasters, developers and designers who create and develop corporate websites. A forum for directors and managers to address, discuss and source solutions to their strategic Internet issues.
