The premier gathering of the government's top and senior executives and employees will be a joint conference in conjunction with a technology exhibition called the IT Innovative Solutions Showcase held at the Founder's Inn and Conference Center in Virginia Beach, Virginia, September 1-4, 1998 This year, the Federal Chief Information Officers Council will join the attendees of the 37th Interagency Resources Management Conference. This joint conference (FedCIO and IRMCO) will allow the senior levels in government to interact in a focused and unencumbered environment to address the hottest IT topics and cross- agency issues facing the Federal, state and international IT communities. An important objective of the joint conference will be to advance the strategic priorities of the CIO Council through dialogue, debate, and discussion among the government's senior executives and seasoned practitioners. IRMCO is typically attended by approximately 300 of the senior information resources and records management officials in government (i.e., Senior Executives and GS-15's and 14's). It has a long tradition for being the place for top officials to upgrade their knowledge on the most relevant topics facing the information management community, and to network with their peers in other agencies. FedCIO will be attended by most of the CIO/Deputy CIOs in the Federal Government, and many of their staffs. Ed DeSeve, the Chairman of the CIO Council and the Director for Management at the Office of Management and Budget, and Jim Flyzik, the Vice Chairman of the Council and CIO of the Department of Treasury, will attend the joint conference and play major roles. This year, the joint conference will include general sessions, many breakout sessions and a two-day exhibition called the IT Innovative Solutions Showcase.
