We invite you to participate in Content Management Strategies/DITA North America 2008 in Santa Clara, California,, April 7-9, 2008 where information professionals meet to explore trends and techniques for multi-purposing and reusing information. We welcome your participation. This is a great opportunity for you to be seen as a market leader in this emerging area.

This two-day information-intensive event is produced by The Center for Information-Development Management (CIDM). Speakers will present on industry hot topics including case studies, e-business, content reuse, translation, cost reduction, document models, DITA, and more.

Vendor Demo Room: CMS features a session room devoted to you, our vendors, for product demonstrations. Each exhibitor will have the opportunity to sign up for a one half hour time slot ahead of the conference. This will give you the opportunity to send announcements to potential clients and conference attendees announcing your session. Last year, this was a huge success, as many of the participants come to the conference with the intention to view products.

Since authoring and CMS tools are key elements in content-management and single-source strategies, we are providing opportunities for you to deliver your message to our audience. This event will primarily attract managers and project leads responsible for making product decisions for their organizations. Presenting your product at this year's Content Management Strategies/DITA North America Conference allows you to show participants your products first-hand and, just as important, to hear their concerns about what they want the products to do.
