TO: TECHNOLOGY COMMITTEE No. 19-09 RE: TECHNOLOGY COMMITTEE MEETING - NOVEMBER 5 & 6, 2009
The next meeting of the Technology Committee and BCP Sub-Committee will take place on Thursday and Friday, November 5 & 6, 2009 at the Investment Company Institute, 1401 H Street, NW, David Silver Conference Room, 12th Floor, Washington, DC. The meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. and end at 3:00 p.m. on both days.
Committee Meeting Format
The November meeting will be structured the same way as prior Technology Committee meetings in 2009. We will have a separate BCP track on the agenda. Each day the BCP Sub-Committee will separate from the Technology Committee and have discussions and presentations specifically aimed at their interests. The two groups will spend time each day together as well to more effectively cover items of more general relevance.
