North Haven, CT August 23, 2001:
New Technology Solutions today announces a schedule of free technical briefings intended for software developers, technology planners and project managers. Presented in a fast-paced format, each session features an informative technical presentation, Q&A, and social networking time. Each briefing demystifies important new enterprise platforms and tools in a short-course format. The target audiences are developers and technology planners who are building enterprise systems today, or are in the process of standardizing enterprise platforms and tools.

“The New Technology Forum is a great opportunity to network with peers while refining your technical expertise”, explains Dan Mezick, President, New Technology Solutions. “Technology planners and developers need clear, concise guidance on the performance characteristics of currently available enterprise platforms and tools. The NewTechForum briefings provide that guidance with hard-hitting technical content. Because these forums are presented by New Technology Solutions, and not a platform vendor, you can expect unbiased analysis-- and absolutely zero Powerpoint slides or marketing messages.”

Each briefing lasts two hours and is keenly focused on a specific enterprise development product. The briefings are presented by NewTech’s technical trainers, who are advanced developers, skilled in the art of theater-style, technical instruction. The aim of each session is to demystify currently available platforms and tools for enterprise software development.

“Building enterprise wide business systems today is a complicated endeavor ”, explains Mezick. “And vendors are part of that problem. They explain their product in isolation. The truth is, the evaluation of any software development platform tool must include a comparision to currently available, competing technology. Our NewTechForum briefing presents each product in context, with hard-hitting analysis and opinion regarding the merits of each product. These briefings will demystify the merits and deficiencies of each platform and tool that we spotlight.“

The briefings are scheduled through May of 2002 and are held from 4 to 6PM. Briefings are available in Waltham, Massachusetts; Providence, Rhode Island; and North Haven, Connecticut. Each presentation is a hard-hitting, technical drill-down and includes extensive code walk-throughs and performance data.

Briefings topics to be presented include:

New Technology Forum briefings are hard-hitting, short-course, technical presentations intended for skilled IT professionals and presented by experts in the field. Briefings are free, but you must register to reserve your seat.
