Regatta 2005 Post-Conference Information
The 3rd new England Business and Technology Regatta was held at the Wyndham Hotel in Westborough on June 9, 2005. This whole day event featured 15 exhibitors and 20 conference sessions that covered business and technology solutions ranging from discrete and process manufacturing solutions, browser-based CRM solutions, order entry, inventory management, advanced communications, sales techniques, ebusiness, EDI, RFID and more.

Attended by over 80 conference participants, Regatta 2005 unveiled a number of new initiatives, starting with the keynote delivered by Lynn Sand, CEO of the 495/MetroWest Corridor Partnership, the separate exhibit hall that remained open during the entire day, and the hands-on demonstrations held throughout the conference.

The attendees met with leading industry solutions providers from around the country and learned about new and innovative business technologies that could greatly enhance their operations and generate higher profit margins.
