3. Vonexus Planning Gala Luncheon on Wednesday
-----------------------------------------------
Times continue to change. Technology evolves. Competition increases. Whatever you want to call them...rules, methods, processes, tools...they've changed. The best solution yesterday often won't cut it today. How do you stay ahead of the curve? How do you implement and follow the latest best practices to ensure that you are using technology to your greatest advantage? Join Interactive Intelligence Inc. CEO Dr. Don Brown for an informative, and very entertaining look at the "New Rules" of business communications. We'll take some shots at the inefficiencies of the old rules, enjoy lunch, sponsored by Vonexus -- an Interactive Intelligence company, and learn about some of the latest innovations in IP telephony and contact center automation. Shatter that old way of thinking and start making decisions based on the "New Rules!"

4. Win A Video iPod or Amazon Gift Certificate
