CSIA DEMOgala

Stonefield Software was invited to Denver this week for a trade mission organized by Industry Canada, Saskatchewan Trade and Export Partnership, and the Canadian Consulate to attend CSIA's Annual DEMOgala event.

As part of the event, Doug Hennig (CTO) was interviewed by Larry Nelson of W3W3.com on how Customized Reporting Solutions Give Your Business an Edge.

On Tuesday evening Doug did a brief presentation on Stonefield Query to approximately 100 guests at a welcome reception hosted by the Canadian Consulate.

On Wednesday, we (Jeff, Chris, Doug, & Mickey) met for several hours with Bob Ogdon and his staff at SwiftPage to discuss how to integrate our products and were very excited about the possibilities for both integration and cross-marketing.

Thursday was DEMOgala 2007, Colorado's premier IT event. We had a booth and showed Stonefield Query to a lot of very interested people. At lunch, Doug was part of a roundtable of C-level executives moderated by Jon Nordmark, CEO of ebags.com. Doug had the opportunity to talk about Stonefield Query in front of an audience of about 600 CEOs and CIOs, plus he had a great discussion about problems caused by the falling US dollar/rising Canadian dollar and the challenges of recruiting staff in the red-hot Canadian economy.

This was a fantastic event for Stonefield and will be seeking out similar events in the future.
