Tech spending trends

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007

Below is some spending trend data you may find useful as reported in the Wall Street Journal today.   Be sure to capture your share at COLLABORATE07.

“Companies are projected to spend $1.55 trillion on technology to keep their businesses running, according to Forrester Research Inc. That is a big number, but it would mean growth will slow to 5% from 8% last year and the previous year, Forrester says, and companies are tightening their tech budgets”.

LIVE is better…take it from Rolling Stones fans

Saturday, January 6th, 2007
I think even tech savvy Oracle professionals would agree, plasma screens and surround sound can’t compare to the LIVE experience.   Why else would the Rolling Stones, sell out arenas all over the world and end with a 2006 tally of about $437 million?  Even the best tech toys can’t duplicatate good times enjoyed at a LIVE event!   The best route to new business opportunities can be realized with networking at the next live event to reach Oracle users entitled COLLABORATE07, Technology and Applications Forum for the Oracle Community, April 15-19, 2007, Las Vegas, Nevada .   The exhibit floor plan for COLLABORATE07 will be posted on the website in just a few days showing the locations of 200+ exhibitors.
