The IT Summit’s Information Technology seminars have been a Denver favorite since 2006. Although historically not known primarily as a tech town, Denver has become a hub for major corporations of all types; it’s location makes it an ideal distribution point for the western United States, being nearly equidistant from large cities of the Midwest such as, Chicago and St. Louis and some large cities of the West Coast such as, Los Angeles and San Diego. And because of it’s altitude and location on the 105th meridian Denver is also one of the largest city in the U.S. to offer a ‘one-bounce’ real-time satellite uplink to six continents in the same business day. With corporations such as Molson Coors Brewing Company, Newmont Mining Corporation, the 2nd largest gold producer in North America and one of the largest in the world, Lockheed Martin Corp., United Airlines, Kroger, MapQuest, numerous federal agencies major US defense and aerospace industries locating major facilities in the Denver area, Denver is a city with tremendous IT needs. The IT Summit’s Denver Information Technology Seminars are an ideal event for IT Managers and Professionals to meet with their peers. This is why The IT Summit’s Denver Information Technology Seminars have been so popular for over half a decade.

After you spend the day networking at The IT Summit’s Denver Information Technology Seminars be sure to take the time to visit some of Denver’s attractions.

“The Unsinkable Molly Brown” wasn’t just a hit musical, Margaret “Molly” Tobin Brown was a real-life hero of the Titanic fiasco. After assisting several other passengers to a nearby lifeboat, Brown with 20 other women, 2 men and a twelve-year-old boy on board the lifeboat were rescued by the Carpathia which had responded to the Titanic’s distress call. Once on board, Brown, an experienced world traveller and adventurer with a knowledge of several foreign languages, undertook to console fellow survivors who spoke little English. She undertook to find extra blankets and supplies to distribute to women who were sleeping in the dining room and corridors. Brown also rallied the first class passengers on board the Carpathia to donate money to now destitute women, succeding to raise $10,000 before the Carpathia reached New York. Find out more about this amazing woman at her former Denver home, now the Molly Brown House Museum.

Coors may (or may not) be the official beer of Denver, but Coors Field is the official home of MLB’s Denver Rockies.
