Dressed in character as an Imperial Servant, John Tolva, Program Manager for Cultural Strategy and Programs for IBM Corporate Community Relations will lead a tour of the most advanced of all custom-built virtual worlds in existence today. The virtual world tour is designed to provide an insight into how SOA can solve architectural challenges, adding immediate value and business flexibility.

Attendees will be able to discuss SOA with IBM’s leading architects and strategists in an innovative setting, and learn first-hand how to shape the future of business communication. The virtual world tour provides a chance to:

• See a real-life SOA case study in action
• Hear how IBM solutions and products map to and enable specific SOA concepts and capabilities
• Learn how to solve architectural challenges through SOA in a way that is non-disruptive to existing IT systems
• Network with technical experts and peers

Limited space is available on each virtual world tour, with demand expected to considerably exceed availability. Registration to participate in this exciting virtual world event closes on Tuesday, 21st April.
