Early Bird Savings Cloud Expo

Cloud computing is a game changer. The cloud is disrupting traditional software and hardware business models by disrupting how IT service gets delivered. Entrepreneurial opportunities abound as this classic disruptive technology begins to proliferate, so it is no surprise that SYS-CON's industry-leading International Cloud Expo is going from strength to strength.

The 5th International Cloud Expo, to be held April 19-21, 2010, at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in New York, NY, announces that its Call for Papers is fast approaching.

Topics on which submission are welcome include all aspects of providing or using massively scalable IT-related capabilities as a service using Internet technologies (see suggested examples below).

Help plant your flag in the fast-expanding business opportunity that is The Cloud: submit your speaking proposal today!

Benefits of Being a Member of the Cloud Computing Expo Faculty
Speakers will receive unprecedented visibility in pre-conference promotion in print and online. They will also receive exposure via the accompanying Cloud Computing Expo 2010 East conference portal for many months prior to and following the conference. Sessions may be recorded and made available via the Internet to a wider audience (at the discretion of SYS-CON Events).

Guidelines for Submitting a Proposal

  • All submissions become the property of SYS-CON Events.
  • All conference breakout sessions must be vendor-neutral. Proprietary or confidential material should not be included.
