Tech Daily Dose: Tech Soiree Scales Back, Gets Creative http://techdailydose.nationaljournal.com/2009/06/tech-soiree-scales-back-gets-c.php?rss=1 en Copyright 2010 Thu, 11 Jun 2009 14:55:33 GMT http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/ http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification Tech Soiree Scales Back, Gets Creative TechAmerica continued the American Electronics Association's tradition of hosting an annual "Technology for Government" soiree on Wednesday but opted for a more economic spread of colorfully named appetizers and specialty cocktails rather than a formal sit-down banquet. AeA and the Information Technology Association of America merged to form TechAmerica in January. Although Google's Chief Internet Evangelist Vint Cerf, also known as the "Father of the Internet," was billed as the evening's star power, the event's creative menu stole the show.
