Allaire will also share Xerox's view of the future of on-demand digital technologies addressing the issues facing the graphic arts industry.

Allaire will be joined by author and business strategist Dr. Martha Rogers. Dr. Rogers is co-author of The One to One Future and Enterprise One to One: Competing in the Interactive Age. Geoffrey Moore, author of the best sellers Crossing the Chasm and Inside the Tornado, will also be joining Allaire and will discuss methods of spotting emerging technologies.

The fourth annual On Demand Conference will be held at the Jacob Javits Center in New York, May 6-8, 1997.

In a related announcement, CAP Ventures has expanded the On Demand Conference to the West Coast. Scheduled to be held in San Francisco, CA, June 17 -18, 1997 at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, the show sponsors hope to attract the professionals who may be reluctant to travel to an east coast-based event. Traditionally, On Demand has been able to draw only a small percent of its total attendance from California, Washington and Oregon, despite the strong POD market in these states.
