SSTI's 4th Annual Conference Date Set

February 25, 2000

Mark Your Calendars! Book your Flights! Make your Reservations! Pack Your Bags!

Planning is underway for SSTI's fourth and largest annual gathering of S&T policymakers and practitioners. The event will be held October 3-4, 2000 in Chicago, Illinois. As in the past, two limited-seating in-depth workshops will precede the conference on Monday, October 2.

SSTI is particularly excited to hold the conference in Illinois – where technology-based economic development has become a focal point of the state's and Chicago's development strategies. The conference will be held at the historic Regal Knickerbocker Hotel (http://www.regal-hotels.com/chicago). The 305-room hotel provides an intimate-yet-formal setting for the event and is conveniently located on the top of Chicago's "Magnificent Mile" – home to the city's finest dining, shopping, and nightlife. A special room rate of $162 has been reserved at the hotel for SSTI conference registrants (mention the SSTI conference to get the discounted rate when calling 1-800-621-8140 to make reservations.)

More details on the conference will be available this summer.
