Communications Solutions Expo Spring 2001 Keynote
To Be Delivered By Former Vice President Al Gore
Technology Marketing Corporation (TMC) announced today that the
Honorable Al Gore, former United States Vice President, has agreed to
deliver the keynote address at their Communications
Solutions EXPO Spring 2001, held May 23-25, 2001 at the Washington,
D.C. Convention Center.
Communications Solutions EXPO is one of the foremost communications
technology trade shows in the world, showcasing many products and services
that leverage the power of the Internet to help companies and individuals
communicate more efficiently.
Mr. Gore is a well-known proponent of technology initiatives and
throughout his career in public service has been credited with helping
pass important technology legislation and fighting for federal funds to
build what later became the Internet. His background -- which includes
being credited with popularizing the phrase 'Information Superhighway' --
makes him an obvious choice to address the audience at Communications
Solutions EXPO.
"Al Gore was instrumental in gaining passage of the landmark
Telecommunications Act of 1996. The opportunities created by that bill for
start-up telecommunications and networking companies is one of the main
reasons Communications Solutions EXPO is such a necessary event in the
industry each year," said Rich Tehrani, TMC President and Conference
Chairman.
Added Tehrani, "In essence, Mr. Gore's efforts enabled many of the
companies that attend and exhibit at the show each year to compete in a
market so long dominated by a few monoliths. It's only fitting that we
afford him the opportunity to address this industry he helped to
form."
Billed as the whole world of communications technology in one place,
this year's Communications Solutions EXPO Spring 2001 is expected to draw
more than 15,000 delegates from around the world. The conference and
exposition showcases technologies that facilitate communication while
reducing cost -- a great formula to follow in a slowing economy.
Mr. Gore's address will be delivered Thursday, May 24th, day two of the
three-day conference and exposition, at 10:00 AM. For more information and
