Deal-makers make connections
N.C. Tech Association draws many CEOs
John Murawski, Staff Writer
DURHAM - If the adage is true that being CEO is a lonely job, then the N.C. Technology Association's yearly confab for chief executives qualifies as the Tar Heel state's premier lonely hearts club.
It's here that corporate leaders shoot the breeze with their peers about leadership, management, motivating employees, corporate succession and other such themes.
For the 520 participants who paid as much as $950 a head to attend the annual event Thursday, it was a daylong opportunity to lap up the corporate wisdom and network like there's no manana. Several participants said the fee is a small item on the corporate expense account and pays big dividends.
The official agenda featured speeches from five CEOs armed with the executive's best friend: the PowerPoint presentation.
But much of the real action took place in the clubby corridors and over a lunch of grilled chicken breast and pearl couscous.
"It's always a good sign when it's difficult to get the people back in the room," said Misys Healthcare Systems CEO Tom Skelton, gauging the crowd. "That means the level of networking is high."
Mike Varga, president and CEO of Tandel Systems, a software company in Largo, Fla., was one of about 100 attendees from out of state, invited here to sample North Carolina's corporate culture and business climate.
"For us and for most of the people here, it's all about the conversation that happens out here in the halls and the conversation that happens at the lunch table," Varga said.
The N.C. Technology Association uses the proceeds from the event to finance its mission. Corporations pay between $3,500 and $25,000 for a host of perks of sponsorship from the nonprofit group that lobbies for economic incentives and other pro-technology policies.
Association president Joan Myers said of the assembled executives: "This is a very deal-maker crowd."
"You have all these people here who either have an idea, a product, a question, a thought," said Bill Johnson, second-in-command at Raleigh-based utility Progress Energy. "If you didn't see them here, you'd have to see them all individually."
Five CEOs gave talks that varied from standard business overviews to professions of leadership philosophy.
Johnson discussed "The Energy of Leadership," Skelton overviewed his company's business, CommScope CEO Frank Drendel reviewed "The Last Mile in Telecommunciations," Network Appliance CEO Dan Warmenhoven spoke of "Building a Model Company," and Nortel Networks CEO Mike Zafirovski lectured on "Global Perspectives of Leadership."
This is when the CEOs sounded most like corporate officials, but it was mostly incidental to this crowd of seasoned CEO watchers.
"There's a 100 books on leadership," Varga said. "A lot of the ideas and principles are very common to what you'd read in those books."

Tandel Systems’ Virtual Front Panel Control and Monitor Interface Lowers Cost for our Customer while Expanding Flexibility in Key Aerospace Project
Clearwater, FL. April 14, 2005
When an important Tandel customer project first opened for bidding, Tandel Systems' Kim Vogel brought down the estimated cost for the project substantially while expanding functionality. His analysis resulted in a simpler engineering design for a control and monitor interface while exceeding customer requirements. Tandel Systems created the Virtual front Panel (VFP) which allowed the customer's engineers to remotely control and monitor specialized spacecraft computer systems during software integration and system test. Mike Varga, CEO of Tandel Systems, recognizes the value of this project as "This is an important development in custom test systems that permits the software engineer to control and simulate a Device Under Test (DUT) from any PC with a browser.
The Virtual Front Panel is of interest to DOD and commercial hardware/software manufacturers who need to remotely configure, stimulate, and monitor a system being used in a controlled environment such as a limited access lab, thermal chamber, or test station. The VFP consists of a VME style board with an embedded server and a variety of discrete, analog, and timing I/O. The VFP provides power supply management and monitoring, control of output discretes, PWM-type outputs to drive (such as periodic interrupts), and analog outputs, all with simple button control through a browser web page. Discrete and analog inputs can be monitored and displayed on the same web page. A key feature of the Virtual Front Panel is the virtual patch panel that allows the user to dynamically connect inputs of the DUT to outputs on the same DUT, or even a different DUT. All the patching is done through simple pull-down menus on the web page. Once the "virtual" patches are set, the VFP hardware makes the hardware connections between the DUT I/O's.
Tandel Systems Plays Dual Role in Supporting METI's New SurgicalSIM - Surgical Education Platform
Clearwater, FL and Sarasota, FL. February 2005
Tandel Systems completes quick turn-around delivery of a framework of educational modules for Medical Education Technologies, Inc.'s (METI®) new SurgicalSIM resulting in METI's interest in Tandel doing further work in on-line tutorial software development. METI signed a second contract for Tandel Systems to contribute to the authoring of the SurgicalSIM User's Guide.
SurgicalSIM is a surgical simulation system that provides an exceptional education experience for future surgeons. It includes simulation models and tutorials in laparoscopic surgery and will expand to include other surgical specialties in the future. The strength of the product is the simulation technology coupled with the education architecture that supports it.
Tandel Systems provided the design and coding of the software framework for METI's educational delivery system. METI inserted multiple sections of SurgicalSIM's extensive on-line tutorial into the framework and will have the capability to re-use the framework for other on-line tutorials in the future. The SurgicalSIM Tutorial encompasses all forms of multi-media: audio, three video venues, text and the navigation means amongst them. This learning delivery systems software experience is an important capability for METI and expansion in Tandel System's experience base. The quick-turn-around delivery of this solution supported METI's users conference deadline. Furthermore, the experience and knowledge base contributed to Tandel Systems' selection to author significant content for the SurgicalSIM User's Guide.
