AMI Knowledge and KnowHow Transfer Day at MLMI 2008
www.amiproject.org/business-portal/akkt
Wednesday, September 10, 2008
The AMI Career Day is a satellite event of MLMI 2008 focused on matching up candidates with members of the AMI Community of Interest who are looking for people with AMI know how and skills to work in their companies.
The Career Day is intended for students or interns working in AMI labs and other facilities with expertise in related fields who are interested in the opportunities that are available in industry/business to develop and commercialize products or services using intelligent meeting technology. It is an opportunity for those seeking to turn their education and experience into an exciting and rewarding career. Conversely, AMI COI members such as Intel, Oracle, Hewlett Packard, Cisco, and SMART Technologies (see http://www.amiproject.org/vendors) can increase their AMI technology knowledge and expertise by hiring young professionals trained in AMI labs and other qualified institutions.
The event will feature face-to-face meetings between companies and candidates, presentations of multimedia meeting technology from the AMI Consortium and invited companies, assistance with job search and resume preparation, a cocktail party. The exact schedule will be announced later on this page.
Registration
The event is open and free of charge to MLMI 2008 participants, who are however required to register before May 31 using the online form.
