I've had some big news I had to keep under wraps until today. My company, Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) and Digium, the Asterisk Company, today announced that they have partnered to host Digium|Asterisk World™ during INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO East 2009 in Miami, Florida. Having ITEXPO host Digium|Asterisk World is a huge win for TMC and further cements TMC's ITEXPO as the most preeminent VoIP and IP communications show. In fact, I recently came across this quote from Phonevite, "With the demise of the VON Show, the Internet Telephony Conference & Expo (aka ITEXPO) is now regarded as the biggest and most eminent show in the VoIP industry."Digium|Asterisk World at ITEXPO will be the conference that addresses "Everything Asterisk" for business users, resellers and executive decision-makers. The event will be held February 2-4, 2009 at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
All can come to Digium|Asterisk World to discover how Asterisk, the world's most widely used open source telephony software, can save them money and allow them to create more flexible telephony solutions.
"We are honored to host Digium|Asterisk World, as open source technology is such a critical driver the growth of the communications market," said Rich Tehrani, TMC president and ITEXPO East 2009 conference chairman. "Mark Spencer and the Digium team are without question true pioneers and innovators. What is important to note is that by joining forces with Digium|Asterisk World, ITEXPO reinforces its position as the industry's most valuable, major communications event worldwide."
The conference will include both booth exhibition space and a Presentation Theatre on the EXPO floor. In addition, TMC and Digium will collaborate to create the conference track agenda, which will be announced in the coming months.
"Digium has led the Asterisk revolution in telecommunications," said Mark Spencer, founder and CTO of Digium and original creator of Asterisk. "Hosting Digium|Asterisk World at IT EXPO East 2009 will allow us to share the vision and power of Asterisk with a broad set of customers who might not be familiar with open source. By giving them their first taste of Asterisk, we empower them to not only save money but to use and create new technologies that never existed before."
ITEXPO East 2009 is the world's largest and most significant communications technology event, featuring more than 200 companies exhibiting on the EXPO floor and hundreds of sessions led by the industry's most prominent thought leaders. The show helps attendees identify the issues and challenges affecting the deployment of communications technologies. It provides a comprehensive forum for evaluating the latest products and services and delivers a face-to-face networking opportunity that service providers, carriers, resellers, distributors, equipment manufacturers and IT executives from enterprise and SMB companies need to cultivate new business relationships.
