This Friday! The first-ever all-day JoomlaExpo Learning Conference on May 16, 2008 at the elegant Renaissance Chicago O'Hare Hotel Joomla users from all over the globe will explore how to achieve goals for business, educational and personal use, using Joomla - one of the most popular open source CMS programs on the scene.

Over 240 Joomla! enthusiasts will attend a full day of learning from a world-class line-up of Joomla experts who are coming to Chicago from across the country, to share their keen insights with you.

Tony BaileyJust Announced:  the JoomlaEXPO Team is proud to welcome Tony Bailey as our featured luncheon speaker. Tony Bailey is Vice President of Content Management Solutions with Acquity Group, one of the nation's fastest-growing enterprise solutions providers.

Topic: "Key Takeaways for the Open Source Enterprise." Years ago, Gartner Group and other trendspotters predicted OSS as a powerful force in the enterprise space. Players like Alfresco, OpenText and Liferay are making that prediction a reality.  How does Joomla! compare? Be sure to be a part of this highly educational luncheon session, sponsored by Midphase Services.

Tony will share his perspective from a business and technology standpoint, discussing best practices to operationalize OSS.  Whether you're developing enterprise-grade software or you're in the producer community, this is a "must-attend" presentation.

Hardik Bhatt, Chicago CIOKeynote Address - Chicago's Vision to Bridge the Digital Divide. Before we dig into a full day of Joomla learning, Chicago's Chief Information Officer, Mr. Hardik Bhatt, will deliver our keynote address, focused on how major cities are helping bridge the digital divide, and how Open Source solutions can and do play a vital role in communities around the globe.

In fact, JoomlaChicago has been working hand-in-hand with the city on helping to solve this very issue.

Let the Learning Begin! Come learn from some of the best Joomla! experts in the development, marketing and design world, including internationally renowned experts Barrie North, Tom Canavan, Victor Drover PhD, Azrul Rahim, Joseph LeBlanc and corePHP's Steve Pignataro.  JoomlaEXPO will offer you programs on SEO and web marketing, CSS template creation, building your own extensions and more.
