 Larry sat down and talked with Carl Fitch, CEO of Statera and Laura Gordon. Carl and Laura are co-chairs of the 9th Annual CSIA Apex Awards. They atarted out discussing an overview of the IT industry in terms of its position today. Carl pointed out that there was a great deal of pulling back in the first quarter of 2009. Now he is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel as there is more activity. He suspects that it will recover, but it will be 2010 before we see a full recovery. Laura pointed out that she has seen many that have lost their job, and others in the corporate environment are beginning to start their own companies. There are many motivations for the spurt in entrepreneurism including the opportunity to implement ideas that couldn't be done in the corporate environment. Their discussion about the Apex Awards and how the corporate and individual nominees along with the judging process was very insightful. The date of the 9th annual Apex Awards is June 9, 2009.
