Questions I’ll Ask 28 Companies at Parks’ Connections Conference (A-L)

I haven’t been to a Parks Associates Connections conference in way too many years – since “home gateways” were all the rage – and I can’t wait to attend this one, May 13-15 in San Francisco.

From the article, "Questions I’ll Ask 28 Companies at Parks’ Connections Conference (A-L)" by Julie Jacobson.
