"Enterprises have seen a steady migration from single-purpose voice, data and video networks to converged IP-based communications," said Fred Knight, VoiceCon General Manager. "With the ongoing evolution of Unified Communications it's clear that new and exciting tools for collaboration will have to work with the enterprise communications platforms. That's exactly why collocating Enterprise 2.0 with VoiceCon makes so much sense for our respective attendees and exhibitors."
"Businesses are starting to understand the value that Web 2.0 and social computing tools can bring for a competitive edge through greater productivity," said Steve Wylie, Enterprise 2.0 General Manager. "But there is much work ahead in integrating these tools with an enterprise communications framework. Collocating VoiceCon and Enterprise 2.0 allows us to explore the possibilities of a truly connected enterprise where communications and social business applications come together." The VoiceCon conference is recognized as the leading event for enterprise decision-makers to evaluate options for migrating to and leveraging IP Telephony, Converged Networks and Unified Communications. VoiceCon San Francisco presents a unique opportunity to speak with experts, listen to the lessons learned by enterprises already making the migration, network with peers and see leading-edge products displayed on the show floor. The VoiceCon Conference Program will address six key overarching issues:
