kind event, "The Technology Leaders Forum 2005."
This is an exclusive, invitation-only event, designed
specifically for business leaders in the Asia Pacific
ICT industry. Featuring a compelling group of speakers,
delegates will have the opportunity to hear from John
Gantz, IDC's Chief Research Officer, Richard Hanley, KPMG's
Transaction Services Global Leader, Information, Communications
& Entertainment (ICE) practice, Mark Bowra, KPMG's
Regional Service Specialist for Business Partner and Intellectual
Property Services in Asia Pacific, and Peter Hind, Senior

Mr. Gantz will kick off the event with "As Asia
Rises: It Challenges and Opportunities," a presentation
that will delve into the unique crossroads facing the
ICT industry and what this means for Asia. Mr. Hanley
will follow with "Current Perspectives from the
Tech Boardroom." A specialist in cross border mergers,
acquisitions and disposals and having led assignments
in Asia, Europe and the U.S, Mr. Hanley is well placed
to share his insights on the major issues and challenges
facing Boards and senior management.
Intellectual property and contract compliance continue
to be one of the biggest issues facing the ICT community
today. Mr. Bowra will share his experiences in Asia
Pacific with a presentation entitled "Protecting
Your Assets - Intellectual Property and Contract Compliance
in the High Tech Sector." You can't afford to miss
such a compelling presentation, as managing intellectual
property rights (IPR) is critical to a company's financial
performance, along with adhering to today's corporate
governance standards.
This half day event will conclude with one of IDC's
most intriguing and entertaining speakers, Peter Hind,
who will discuss the CIOs perspective - "The Demand
Side of the IT Equation." Mr. Hind will provide
insights into how IT budgets have been changing over
time in Asia Pacific; the technologies being, or intending
to be, adopted by Asia Pacific CIOs and the key issues
they are facing.
Do not miss the opportunity to hear from some of the
brightest minds in the ICT industry and to share best
practices and network with your peers in Asia Pacific.
