The NCTC Fall Membership Gala
A Salute to Technology: The Future That Was & Will Be


September 1, 2010
The Hotel Roanoke and Conference Center
5:30pm Reception
7pm Dinner & Program


At this year's Fall Gala, we're nodding our cap to the technology of yesteryear while celebrating the possibilities of tomorrow. To salute the innovations of days past, we're hosting a showcase that will include items like the original Atari, the first Macintosh, a DeLorean, and who knows what else! And to celebrate the possibilities of what tomorrow may bring, we've invited our keynote speaker, David Houle. David is focused on the future - it's what he does, it's in his title (he's a Futurist), and he's an author (The Shift Age). David focuses his strategic thinking on "what will come to be" and his keynote address will focus on our transition from The Information Age to The Transformation Decade. This year's Fall Gala will be full of fun, a few surprises, and inspirational prognostication. View photos from last year's Fall Gala.
