The Sprint Solutions for Everyday Business Challenges Seminar, scheduled for June 24 at the Sheraton Capital Center in Raleigh, will feature author and technology forecaster Daniel Burrus, technology and communications researcher Dr. Neale Martin, and educator Dr. Steve Constantino. The free seminar will give businesses and schools information that can immediately help shape their future technology investment decisions.

"We're excited to bring such a high-profile group of experts to Raleigh," said Kaye Bryan, Sprint public affairs manager. "Bringing together such a strong pool of leaders in their field is an extension of Sprint's philosophy on the whole -- to be a total solutions provider by offering complete, customized and integrated communications systems."

The keynote address at the Sprint Solutions for Everyday Business Challenges Seminar will be made by Burrus, founder and chief executive officer of Burrus Research Associates, Inc. Over the past two decades, Burrus has established an exceptional record of accurately predicting the future of technological change, becoming the first and only forecaster/futurist to correctly identify the twenty core technologies that would drive permanent technological change through the end of the 20th century. His predictions are based on a unique and proven methodology he developed two decades ago and he'll share these forecasting techniques with the audience.

Constantino, principal of Stonewall Jackson High School in Manassas, Va., and founder of Family Friendly Schools, a nonprofit organization, will lead a breakout session on the importance of family engagement in education and the vital role technology plays in forming strong family partnerships. ...
