FRAMINGHAM, Mass-/8 April, 2005 - Wi-Fi Technology Forum/- IDG’s Computerworld, the “Voice of IT Management,” announced a prominent slate of CIOs and CTOs as presenters at its upcoming, third annual Mobile & Wireless World (MWW) conference, June 13-15, 2005, at the Westin Kierland Resort & Spa, Scottsdale, Ariz.
Senior IT managers who will present at the conference include:
• Dr. Phiroz Darukhanavala, vice president & chief technology officer at British Petroleum
• John Wade, chief information officer at Saint Luke’s Hospital
• Ernest Park, chief information officer at Maytag
• Andres Carvallo, chief information officer at Austin Energy
• Ron Fijalkowski, chief information officer at Strategic Distribution Inc.
• And Dale Frantz, chief information officer at Auto Warehousing Company
Debuting in 2003, MWW has become the market’s leading content-rich conference designed to arm IT executives and managers with valuable case studies and best practices from, and for, the enterprise. As in previous years, the upcoming conference will feature the successes and challenges of IT executives and will highlight services and products now available in the mobile and wireless arena. A large audience of IT executives from end-user companies is expected to rival the demographics of the 2004 event, which drew attendees with an average company revenue of $3.3 billion.
“The beauty of the Mobile & Wireless World environment is that it focuses on more than one industry,” said David B. Garrett, vice president and chief information officer at Baptist Health Care. “For example, healthcare can learn from benchmarks in other industries and start thinking outside the box. Mobile & Wireless World is a very practical environment, where users learn from the failures and successes of their peers, and pick up many ideas through the case studies presented on stage.”
