interactive technology forum

Shaping the Future of Ceramics

Join us Monday and Tuesday evenings for two Interactive Technol-ogy Forum sessions. This highly-publicized, groundbreaking event features presentations from ceramic profession-als using their  laptop, iPad, or other electronic devices. Traditional posters and hands-on demonstrations will also be presented. The Interactive Technology Forum fosters usage of new technology to present technological developments. Fifty interactive posters will be displayed along with 200 traditional posters. This not-to-miss event takes place in conjunction with the ICC4 expo.

Thank you to the National Science Foundation for providing funding towards the 32-inch monitors used in the Interactive Technology Forum.
