We would like to ask members of this technology transfer interest group to
consider joining us at the Emerging Technology Forum.  This is a unique and
exclusive gathering of business leaders who meet to share knowledge and
expertise on strategic technology issues.  Many of our corporate members
have used this to help their managers "reconnect" to American technology after
assignments in the developing world.

We hosted the Forum in 1993 and 1994 and are reinstating it this year at the urging of our past participants, including the CTO's and CIO's of major multinational firms. These members asked us to provide this as a platform to explore technology issues in a vendor-free environment, with an emphasis on brainstorming and networking. Presentations and case studies are from the members themselves and include:

- Enterprise Network Design - Groupware and Intranet Strategies - Electronic Commerce and Internet Integration - Wide Area Network Performance - Corporate Data Synchronization - Data Security Architectures

The Forum meets three times per year, each time in a different American city, and is organized as a long weekend at an exclusive hotel or resort. The next Forum meeting will be on October 25th and 26th in San Francisco and we would like to attract new participants from innovative corporations. If you or any of your associates are involved in strategic technology planning and would like to learn more about this forum please give me a call or drop me an email note.
