Conference Webcasts

We are very happy to conclude our 2009 IWB Conference with the announcement that it was a magnificent success. The keynote speakers where riveting, the panels were highly engaging, the venue and refreshments where second to none, the poster session was hotly contested, and the technology petting zoo was extremely informative and entertaining at the same time.

We have made the effort to create a webcast of our sessions which we present here so you may review the highlights of the conference. We hope that these videos will encourage you to attend this conference in the future.

Note: The Quicktime file does not seem to work well with Internet Explorer, try FireFox, another browser or the WMV file.
