Among the many annual conferences you could attend, Microsoft TechEd is a major one to catch if you want the greatest and the latest in tech world news . The conference, a tradeshow for all technologies shiny and new, made its North American stop in Orlando. And with a name like “TechEd�, it’s exactly what it sounds like—Tech Education, a chance to learn about technology in detail.
This year’s 2007 TechEd Conference from June 4th -8th gave Investintech a great chance to participate and expand the awareness of our products and showcase the abilities of our technology. The goal: to keep up with user needs and new developments. With over 13, 000 attendees composed largely of IT professionals and developers, it was an all round informative experience for both attendees and Investintech execs alike.
If you weren’t there yourselves, our executives, David, Keith and George, made their appearance as exhibitors where they got a good reception and managed to gauge the PDF user experience. As Investintech President and exhibitor David recalls, “In addition to our PDF-to-Excel, Word and other format extractions, attendees expressed a lot of interest in adding PDF conversion elements to their internal corporate processes and workflows.� Of course, there were also some concerns as attendees gave excellent feedback on conversion shortcomings and developing requirements.
As well, the conference proved to be great for interacting with the tech-savvy as well. As the conference is also known as a technical training conference, our lead developer, George, managed to attend several conference sessions and got the latest scoop on emerging technologies and platforms. Our executives also chanced to meet with the Microsoft team and discussed PDF, XPS and related matters – in the spirit of technology partnership.
And as TechEd organizers provided some very effective methods of promoting exhibiting partners (one of which included hosting a special exhibit area cocktail reception on Day One), our execs weren’t short of good, fun occasions in which to meet and speak with IT professionals and developers and share the strengths and benefits that our PDF conversion technology has to offer.
Reaching thousands of people on the exhibit floor, speaking one-on-one with attendees, and sharing our vision of PDF conversion technology, the event was definitely another positive and successful experience for Investintech.com.
