The GTA hosted a full conference track dedicated to Green IT including a Green IT Pavilion in the InnoTech Austin exhibit area.

Industry experts from across the Green IT spectrum from world class organizations including, Aperio Marketing, Applied Materials, Austin Energy, Center for International Energy and Environmental Policy, ClearCube, Chatsworth Products, Green Planet Energy, IBM, Rackspace, Sun Microsystems, and TechTurn presented on a variety of Green IT topics. The conference program included sessions and panels on greening the datacenter, supporting emerging green technologies, best practices in Green IT evaluation and implementation as well as the first steps in greening your organizations operations.

Dr. Webber opened the day long event with a standing room only opening session on the “economic state of the environment.” He engaged the audience in a rousing discussion on the connections between energy and the economy, and the critical energy technologies of the future that be brought online to solve the problem without upending the economy. The sessions continued with case studies and rousing panel debates on the best approaches for an organization going green. Virtualization was of course discussed but it became clear that the best benefit for green from virtualization is the ability to more effectively track and monitor usage and energy consumption. This and many other valuable insights from the day long series of events kept many in their seat long after the sessions ended.

InnoTech Austin is a one day focused event where education, innovation, peer-to-peer networking and the latest technology and business solutions are all available specifically for IT professionals. The fourth annual Austin InnoTech assembled the leading business and technology executives in the region for a day of answers to IT issues, real world case studies and is the best chance to see the latest products and solutions that support your business.

Green is a hot topic and a strategic area for all IT organizations and InnoTech Austin is proud to partner with the GTA, an organization at the forefront of innovation in the Green IT space, to help create and support our first dedicated Green IT conference track and Green IT pavilion at the InnoTech conference. — Sean Lowery, Executive Director, Prospera Events.
