One of ETRE's trademarks is the team of chairpersons that play an instrumental role and devise its multifaceted agenda. Drawn from the world's top publications, the Chairpersons develop an editorial framework to spark animated discussions on today's technology and business issues. Their candid, in-depth analysis sets the conference agenda; while they also moderate discussions and conduct interviews, challenging speakers and participants alike to reveal their thoughts and strategies. At the same time, they help ensure top-quality editorial coverage of the conference, which will be read around the world.
