Mobile Web Frameworks: A Case Study in Implementing jQTouch
Roll back
| description |
ORGANIZATION AND REGISTRATION
Presented by the Developer Forum of the Software Association of Oregon. Online registration is open through the website until 5pm on May 18.
EVENT SUMMARY
The sudden rise of smart phones interests organizations in extending their existing applications to work with mobile devices. The question immediately rises whether to develop native apps for the mobile platforms or to create a mobile-friendly web site.
Both approaches have pros and cons, but some code frameworks make it easy to produce websites that look and feel close to a native app by making use of HTML5 and CSS3.
Recently WebMD wanted to make a userâs Personal Health Record available in a mobile friendly manner. This talk will go over the key points which drove us to use the jQTouch framework over native apps, and it will go into technical detail showing how this framework allowed for a very fast and clean implementation.
The event includes networking, program, and lunch.
PRESENTER
Jake Hall, Lead Developer, WebMD
Jake Hall has worked in the software industry for 10 years. He has spent the last 6 years at WebMD Health Services Group and is currently Lead Developer and is has been providing leadership on the development team in moving to mobile applications. |

OEN Webinar: Is there a Market for your Product?
Roll back
| description |

Are you thinking of starting a new company? Or already have, but sales aren't what you think they should be? Are you questioning your market's "readiness" for your products or services? Your company?
If you are concerned about market acceptance - and want to learn how to quickly âidentifyâ how well the market will receive your product, don't miss this webinar.
Mark Paul, Managing Director at Synergy Consulting Group and the author of The Entrepreneur's Survival Guide, will walk you through two (of the six) methods to help you determine if there is a market for your product or business - before you invest time and money developing products that may never be what the market wants.
Speaker: Mark Paul
Mark Paul has extensive executive leadership experience. He has led start-ups through public companies in his 22 years in interim executive and consulting work. Before Synergy, he spent 10 years at Northrop Corporation (Global 500 company), where (as an intrapreneur) he built a 250-person business unit in two years. He has a degree in Physics, a patent, and published several editions of two business books: The Entrepreneur's Survival Guide, and How to Attract Significantly More Customers. |

Fascinated by orgies of towering analog synthesizes from the 60s? Mesmerized by how computers can generate sound that offends and elates? In this causal yet intense session, we will cover the basics of audio signal theory while exploring the common techniques and tricks used by sound designers and synth builders.
We will progressively cover theories/techniques from the ground up, so no formal experience is required. We will make some noise.
<h2>When?</h2>Sunday, May 29, 2011
1-5pm PST
<h2>Where?</h2>Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA) Room 205,
Portland, OR, US
<h2>Participants should bring:</h2><ul><li>A mac/linux/windows laptop with a functioning Pd installation.</li><li>A basic/rudimentary knowledge of Pd</li><li>Headphones</li><li>An eagerness to learn, develop, and share!</li></ul>
The Pd synthesis workshop is <b>FREE</b> and <b>OPEN TO THE PUBLIC</b>. Seating is limited (to about 30) on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Helping you Solve the Rubik's Cube of Revenue Growth: Getting from $1M to $5M
Roll back
| description |
Ever try to solve a Rubik's cube? Most people can complete one side, but solving the whole puzzle is decidedly more difficult. Entrepreneurs experience the same thing when trying to solve the revenue growth puzzle. Achieving the first million is pretty straightforward, but growing revenues from $1M to $5M is complicated. You have to be thinking several steps ahead and managing several moving parts. Solving the revenue growth puzzle requires you to think of marketing, sales, staffing, training, financing, production and distribution. OEN has assembled a stellar panel of entrepreneurs who have successfully grown their companiesâ revenues past the $5M mark and are willing to share their experiences, and answer your questions. Please join moderator Frank Helle, CEO of Axian, Inc. and Program Chair for OEN's CEO Roundtable, along with the following three revenue-growth experts for an informative and entertaining panel discussion. There will be plenty of interactive Q&A time regarding how to drive revenue growth from the $1M marker to the $5M marker.
Chris Marsh, Pulse Health
Julie Pickens, Little Busy Bodies
Mike Wright, Wellpartner
You can cut to profitability but not to top-line growth...learn what these experts know This panel of local entrepreneurs knows how to create long-term value for all stake holders through top-line growth. They also have succeeded recently despite the challenging access to capital and the difficult economy businesses face today. This workshop is your opportunity to quiz them on their successes, frustrations, and lessons learned that you can apply to your growing business. |

Entrepreneurs experience the same thing when trying to solve the revenue growth puzzle. Achieving the first million is pretty straightforward, but growing revenues from $1M to $5M is complicated. You have to be thinking several steps ahead and managing several moving parts. Solving the revenue growth puzzle requires you to think of marketing, sales, staffing, training, financing, production and distribution. OEN has assembled a stellar panel of entrepreneurs who have successfully grown their companiesâ revenues past the $5M mark and are willing to share their experiences, and answer your questions. Please join moderator Frank Helle, CEO of Axian, Inc. and Program Chair for OEN's CEO Roundtable, along with the following three revenue-growth experts for an informative and entertaining panel discussion. There will be plenty of interactive Q&A time regarding how to drive revenue growth from the $1M marker to the $5M marker.
Chris Marsh, Pulse Health
Julie Pickens, Little Busy Bodies
Mike Wright, Wellpartner

CEO Roundtable - Creating an Executive Leadership Team That Works
Roll back
| description |
Frank Helle, CEO of Axian, Inc., will lead an interactive discussion about what to look for as you're selecting and growing your executive team. Weâll focus on leadership team issues and the warning signs that, if left untended, can derail executives' careers -- and in the process can torpedo both the culture of your team and your growing company. Share with other CEOs your experiences, insights and frustrations in working with your own and othersâ potential career derailers, and gain insights for proactively addressing these leadership issues.
Our featured content expert is executive coach Rebecca Perry. As a former manager in a Fortune 50 company, and with 20+ years of experience as coach and sounding board for leaders in start-up and growing organizations, she brings to our table her curiosity, insights and lessons-observed.
The content of this session will include a brief description of the Hogan Leadership instrument -- a unique personality assessment so incisive itâs a legally-defensible predictor of leadership success. You'll hear about the 11 most common ways leaders shoot their careers and their company cultures in the foot. This information can help you notice warning signs in your team before they become show-stoppers.
Our group will discuss lessons-learned in creating alignment on a leadership team, and fostering an environment where weâre bringing out each others' best especially during the intense and often stress-producing phases of a young company.
Open only to CEOS or Presidents of currently operating companies that have employees. Boxed lunch will be served. This program is limited to 12 participants, and is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

The open discussion is a free event designed for high school and university students and their parents who want to learn more about technology careers and the educational paths available to enter the field.
Recent graduates of each university's technology programs will join a panel of industry professionals to explore career paths in tech. Theyâll speak to subjects including how they got interested in technology, what their educational journey has been like, what their career aspirations are and a view into "a day in the lifeâ.
Bring your tough questions! You get twenty minutes of open audience Q&A and oaths from our presenters to tell nothing but the truth.
