& Expo
2008: Decision Year for RIAs
- Oct 20-22, 2008 in San Jose, CA
The emergence of Web 2.0 technologies and the iPhone experience have shown that great user interface design makes a big difference. The era of primitive HTML websites is over, and Fortune 500 companies are speedily wising up to the fact.
On the Web, the new priority is innovation and optimizing the user experience and the Rich Internet Applications tools and platforms that encourage and support superior user experience are fast becoming an enterprise requirement for business survival and success.
But the days when AJAX is the only game in town are over, and the 6th International AJAXWorld Conference & Expo in San Jose, CA, on October 20-22, 2008 is your chance to come and see it and hear it for yourself.
Because it's easy to misjudge priorities and invest in the wrong technology, AJAXWorld will help you invest in the right one for your particular business. It will help you find the optimal balance between business needs, technology potential, and enhanced user experience. AJAXWorld Conference & Expo 2008 West is where you can find what you're going to need for business survival and Web success in 2008, 2009 and beyond.
AJAXWorld's 90+ technical sessions, Keynotes, Power Panels and General Session Demos will help you determine which Rich Internet Technology will provide the most meaningful impact in your business, organization or service. The conference program aims to inform and inspire you toward the detailed implementation plan that you're going to need in the next 12 months in your own initiative whether that's SaaS, financial services, healthcare, enterprise portals, ISV applications, or whatever.
The Expo floor additionally will allow you to follow up on the premier solutions already available and to choose which best suits your needs.
