Just as the Internet revolutionized the business world, pundits are now speculating that virtual worlds are the next step in the evolution of technology. Attend this cutting-edge presentation and get the answers to the following questions:
- What are the business applications of virtual worlds?
- How will virtual worlds impact corporate IT in 2008 and the years ahead?
- What are the opportunities for savvy entrepreneurs?
Featured speakers include Mike Vizard, Editorial Director for Ziff-Davis Enterprise and Chris Klaus, CEO of Kaneva, who will discuss the practical business applications today and potential future implications. Other proposed participants include a speaker from a Fortune 100 business that has embraced virtual technology; a nationally recognized creator of a virtual world who will participate virtually by sending an avatar; and a start-up company that has developed virtual reality training applications. A moderated panel discussion will follow the presentations.
