FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
January 22, 2004

WASHINGTON - PICnet, Inc. (www.picnet.net), a technology consulting firm for non-profit organizations, has announced a ten part roundtable series that will bring together technologists, management, and users from the non-profit and political technology landscape that will push the envelope in building the framework for creative new technologies to be built in the next ten years.

"Serious discussions such as these are lacking in the non-profit arena," said Ryan Ozimek, CEO of PICnet. "This series fills this void by bringing together the leaders who will shape the technology non-profits will use during the next ten years by looking at past best practices to help provide innovation for the future."

In 1995, Netscape went public and set in motion the Internet as most people know it today. Come 2005, non-profit organizations will have had 10 years to analyze how this amazing decade has provided them with technology tools that have reshaped the way they operate. What worked? What failed? What can we do better? What does innovation look like for this sector in the next decade?

Each month PICnet will invite 8-12 non-profit and political leaders to discuss how they can push the envelope in innovation and technology. Attendees will include non-profit management, non-profit technology consultants, political consultants, campaign staff, grassroots organizers, and others who have an interest in online technology and its use in engaging constituents.

Information and findings gathered at each event will be compiled into a report that will be freely available to the non-profit community and will be presented throughout 2005 at non-profit and political technology conferences.
