delivery. Citrix Synergy is where virtualization, networking and application
delivery meet in a three-day mega-conference with a broad industry
focus. Attendees get the benefit of four events with one registration:
a traditional user conference with the latest on Citrix products;
an application delivery expo of breakout tracks, products and solutions;
an IT 2.0 business symposium exclusively for C-level professionals;
and Geek Speak Live, an un-conference where tech geeks, analysts and
bloggers pick the topics and facilitate the sessions. More information
