About the Forum On Wednesday April 30th, 2003, the Louisiana Technology Council (LTC) will be hosting a one-day conference on, âThe Role of Technology in Homeland Security: A Forum of National Leaders.â Two prominent US Department of Homeland Security personnel from Washington will be key speakers at this event, including (recently confirmed by Congress) Dr. Charles E. McQueary, Under Secretary for Science and Technology, and Dr. Randy Null, Chief Technology Officer for Transportation Security Administration. The agenda is packed with additional expert speakers who will provide insight on the importance and role of technology in protecting our nation. We believe that this is the first statewide initiative of this nature that is presented at the national level. The event is intended to be a forum for discussion, recommendations and decisions on the role of Technology in Homeland Security and how Louisiana can play an important role in this endeavor. Attendees are encouraged to come prepared to enter a dialogue on the subject matter with the respective speakers. Louisiana will play an important role in the Homeland Security concerns addressing our country and we are proud that the federal government is supporting Louisiana as the site for this important forum. Organizations and attendees will also have a better understanding on the business opportunities related to this endeavor. We expect to broadcast this forum to designated areas throughout the State. The goal of the LTC is to help Louisiana become a recognized leader in Homeland Security initiatives, and your support of this forum will go a long way in showing commitment to this cause. -- John Hebert System Engineer I T Group, Inc. http://www.it-group.com
