InfoToday 2001

It's all about convergence.

What we have witnessed first-hand is a convergence of interest among information professionals, IT professionals, and knowledge managers. The needs of today’s enterprises demand collaboration among the communities responsible for providing resources and platforms for sharing information and knowledge.

What we have done is create an event in which, for the first time, these communities can interact and learn from each other’s experiences and knowledge. We have organized the program into three core conferences—National Online 2001, KnowledgeNets 2001, and E-Libraries 2001. The exhibition, however, will span all three conferences under the InfoToday 2001 umbrella, and exhibitors will therefore have access to a unique blend of attendees interested in all facets of the information and knowledge management industries.

We like to think that we have created a gathering place broad enough to embrace all members of the information and knowledge communities without abandoning our deep roots in the online and electronic publishing marketplace. We believe that exhibitors in 2001 will continue to see a brisk and steady stream of their traditional customers while benefiting from the presence of a broader base of potential customers and business partners.

We invite you to witness and be part of a true milestone in the information and knowledge management industries. Please consider the many compelling reasons for exhibiting at InfoToday 2001 and then let us hear from you very soon!
