"Connecting with the audience is always so important to me. I want to talk about the changing industry and mix in quite a few stories that make people laugh and cry. I want to excite people and get them charged up. I want them think about competing in new ways. To understand the changing industry and how to win. To help them see where we came from, where we are today, and where we are headed tomorrow. The applause at the end always feels great and lets me know that we really did connect." Jeff Kagan

How is the industry changing. Morphing. Adding. So many companies. So many technologies. So many sectors coming together. So many ideas. So much competition. So much change. So quickly.
How to market going forward. How to remain fresh and keep on the radar while the industry is reinventing itself. Get your message heard. Lead. New opportunities and new challenges.
The technology industry continues to transform itself. Every year existing companies are moving into new areas, like Apple into wireless with the iPhone. Like Google and Microsoft with their cell phone software. What companies are doing right and wrong and what's next.
Going Green is one of the next big revolutions in technology. Look at how competitors are going green.
The opportunities are huge. Incredible. But the risks are just as large. Companies have to make moves into new areas. They have to grow and expand. They have to re-make themselves or risk becoming irrelevant and stagnant.
Lead. If you don't, your competitor will. Then you will follow.
