Conference Focus
The 2002 Conference will tackle one of the most important
issues facing technology mangers in particular

explosion expected in E-commerce, supply
chain logistics and other opportunities presented by the growth
of the Internet activities. While many may

such technology provides in the near and not
so near future.
