The producers of the International Business Rules Forum(TM) announced the addition of the Rules Technology Summit(TM) - a new co-located event - with this year's Forum. The Rules Technology Summit is aimed at technical audiences including IT architects and IS professionals whose goals are to take advantage of the business rules approach to build agile applications with the flexibility to accommodate frequently changing business conditions.
