I will be attending the World Technology Summit & Awards in New York in two-and-a-half weeks, July 21st & 22nd. This is the second annual invitation-only event held by the organization.
I was very surprised to be invited and I must admit that I am a bit in awe of the 2000 & 2001 award winners and nominees. It will certainly be an honor to be present in the same room with many of them.
The invitation has affected things around here. To think that my work has generated the interest of a person or persons in such an elite group is heartening. Few of their names are known by any of my immediate circle, but many of my personal heroes are among them. I'm warily optimistic that a "turning point" is in the offing.
The World Technology Summit & The World Technology Awards.
