Dear delegates/ speakers and sponsors:
The conference organizing team appreciates your attendance and participation. We have been planning for this conference for over one year. It began with your feedback in a survey of what you wanted for content in this conference and it will end with your feedback on the quality of content, amenities and hospitality. Your satisfaction with this conference is the ultimate gratification for us and the reward towards which we have worked. The dedication and hard work of the volunteers is represented in the quality of the program presented.
The members of the organizing team have gained a tremendous amount from the alumni and others around the world not the least of which is an appreciation for the closeness of our global community. The challenges we faced in a soft economic climate made us strive to work harder at producing a better conference with fewer resources than we would have liked to have had. Our sincerest appreciation to the Sponsors and the alumni who gave so generously to help make this all come together.
We wish you all a great and enjoyable stay in Chicago-land and hope we are able to meet your expectations.
Sincerely,
Ray Mehra
Conference Chairman
