Per our discussion, I've enclosed three files that include an invitation, agenda and rsvp form for the June 10 symposium on High Tech Acquisitions at Insead. If you or the individual(s) who will be attending have any questions, please email: Phanish Puranam at: PHANIS20@WHARTON.UPENN.EDU or you can call him at 215-898-1231. This initiative will be expanded during the coming year and I believe that Enron's involvement will give the company access to some of the early research in progress as it unfolds, and of course, if you become involved as a partner in the Emerging Technologies Program you would have opportunities to help guide the direction of the research which is one of the partnership "benefits." Our next upcoming events are scheduled for: Friday, September 8 "WHAT NEXT ON THE INTERNET?" This is a faculty update day with industry partners also invited. We will co-sponsor this with Wharton's major e-Business initiative. Major issues addresses include "New Economics of the Web" and "Internet, Anywhere." Friday, October 20 "FIRST MOVER ADVANTAGE, SHAKEOUTS & SURVIVAL STRATEGIES" Designed by the ET core group and presented in collaboration with the e-Commerce Forum. As I indicated during our discussion, participation in the Emerging Technologies Management Research Program is by invitation and on behalf of our core faculty, I am pleased to extend an invitation for Enron to join the program. To assist in your decision, we recommend having a representative attend the symposium in Paris on June 10 to "test drive" the program. I'll send you a formal invitation which you are free to accept at your convenience, should you agree that Enron's participation in the ET Program would be of value. Please call or email if you have any comments or questions. best regards, Michael - Insead workshop Invitation lett - Insead Workshop Agenda1.doc - RSVP form.doc Michael S.
