CM Professionals will host its sixth Summit at the Westin Copley Place, 27 November, 2006 in conjunction with the 3rd Annual Gilbane Conference on Content Technologies Boston. This year's Summit theme is "Content Management and the World Enterprise". Participants will have an opportunity to get advice and recommendations from well-established experts in the field, and to exchange ideas with peers working in the dynamic, increasingly important content management community of practice.

About the Summit

The CM Pros Fall Summit attracts an intimate group of influential content professionals from around the globe. Both non-members and members of the organization attend the Summit. A typical audience may contain less than 100 attendees -- from well-known content management consultants to representatives of corporate content management project teams -- from independent content strategists to important industry analysts -- from writers, editors, and translators working in the trenches to business managers of content-heavy organizations. They're all seeking the same things: help solving difficult content challenges, lessons learned, best practices, new contacts, and useful skills they can take back with them when they return to the office. The CM Pros Summit is designed to deliver all this and more!

Program

The Fall 2006 Summit will kick-off with a keynote address from multi-cultural marketing localization and business globalization guru Don DePalma. Roundtable discussions and hands on workshops will help attendees understand global content management systems, explore content standards including Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA) and create Spanish language content for the emerging Latino American market.
