    12:30 PM - 1:20 PM Repurposing Legacy Applications for Multi-Channel Communications
    Speaker(s): Jeff DeVoyd, GMC Software International, Inc.
    While tools and applications for repurposing legacy content from spooled print files have long benefited users with time and cost savings when the original composition tools and content no longer exist, for the most part, the resulting application and output was print-based.

    As multi-channel communications, messaging that is delivered via two or more media channels, including print, e-mail, Web, Purls or via mobile phone, grows in adoption, what technology, tools and applications are need to take advantage content, layout and design in a legacy environment?

    Jeff DeVoyd, Vice President of Marketing Technology at GMC Software International will explore multi-channel communications as well as technology needed to exploit the trend when faced with legacy applications.
    1:20 PM - 1:30 PM Break

    Speaker(s): Gregory Szabo, Hg197 Inc.
    Spend an hour with Aia Software and Hg197 as we review with you the industry trends for document composition, content control, and multichannel delivery. We will expose the current weaknesses of document composition and propose a more cost effective alternative. The review will highlight the benefits of the new way of doing business including:

  • corporate and legal compliance in all customer correspondence
  • expedited changes to "the allowed content in documents"
  • consistent branding in all your correspondence
  • selective multichannel delivery
  • integration of customer communication into your current business processes and applications
  • accelerated correspondence composition
  • webification of your document composition mechanism
  • and most importantly, delivery of a significant ROI and reduced TCO

    From this session you will take away a new way of doing business that constitutes a radical change from where document composition, content control, and multichannel delivery are managed today.
