"Designed to help IT, communications and collaboration decision makers maximize their investment in systems, software and services, Enterprise Connect will analyze the effect of new solutions on business processes and employee productivity," said Fred Knight, Enterprise Connect General Manager.  "Our keynoters represent the leading industry suppliers, and are uniquely suited to assess the benefits and challenges of emerging options in the Unified Communications market, such as WebRTC, Cloud services, mobility and video."

The current keynote line-up includes:

• Avaya's Kevin Kennedy, President & CEO
• Cisco's Rowan Trollope, Senior Vice President & General Manager, Collaboration Technology Group
• Microsoft's Gurdeep Singh Pall, Corporate Vice President for Lync & Skype Engineering

Enterprise Connect also will present a full-day WebRTC Conference on Monday, March 17. WebRTC is a still emerging technology that enables a browser-based approach to real-time voice and video, and very few enterprises have experience with it. The conference-within-a-conference uncovers the question, "is WebRTC ready for prime time?" The six sessions will address technical obstacles to deployment, include hands-on tutorials and host a panel of WebRTC innovators. Analysts, vendors and consultants will all weigh in on how WebRTC's future will evolve.

Enterprise Connect includes eight tracks of conference programming focused on communication and collaboration technology and management issues. The Expo will feature more than 150 providers of enterprise communications applications, software and services. Diamond sponsors currently include: Avaya, Blackberry, Cisco, Crestron Electronics, Dolby, Microsoft, NEC Corporation and Unify.
