Topic: Energize IT: Anything is Possible.

EnergizeIT is brought to you by Microsoft and the Regina Technology Community. Throughout the evening event, you will hear from the community, Microsoft advisors as we talk about Windows Azure, Office System 2010, Visual Studio 2010 and Windows Mobile. It’s evident the Microsoft-based platform presents a bevy of opportunities for all of us. Whether you are a Developer or an IT Pro, knowing how these will impact you is critical, especially in the new economic reality.

This evening community event will help you understand Microsoft’s Cloud Services vision. You will find out about the possibilities that these technologies help realize and the value that they can bring to your organization and yourself.

Microsoft advisors will explore the Microsoft-based platform through a scenario that will demonstrate different points of view - from developer to IT Pro, from consumer to the information worker. From the client to the cloud, this fun-filled demo-intensive exploration will excite you about the possibilities of the Microsoft-based platform. You’ll see how to build next generation applications with technology like Silverlight, .NET 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010. You will find out how to consume those applications on a variety of devices, like mobile devices running Windows Phone, netbooks and PCs running Windows 7, as well as the web. You will learn about how the Microsoft-based platform allows you to connect with your colleagues no matter where you are –office, coffee shops, or your own living room. You’ll also see how you and your colleagues can be even more productive with Office 2010 and SharePoint 2010.
