Atlanta, GA, June 16, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Fireside Chat Plus Social Media Format Encourage Participation
Two of the hottest topics in the Health Information Technology (HIT) field are finding capital and supporting innovation, and they were the focus of a May 26th meeting of Technology Association of Georgia (TAG) Health. TAG is the state’s leading association dedicated to the promotion and economic advancement of Georgia’s technology industry.
A “fireside chat” with industry leaders was followed by an interactive discussion that included text and tweet input. During the Town Hall portion of the meeting, audience input was projected on the big screen with the opportunity to participate onsite and remotely. The meeting was held from 7:30-9:00 AM in the Metro Atlanta Chamber Boardroom.
This community meeting was a prelude to the 2011 Health IT Leadership Summit, which included program modules on capital and innovation, two key building blocks for success that can also be insurmountable obstacles. These topics were identified based upon feedback from the highly successful 2010 Summit, which attracted 500+ participants for the daylong conference.
Speakers for the May 26th TAG Health meeting included Mark Reiboldt, Vice President, Coker Capital Advisors, and H. Morgan Crafts, Jr., PMP, MBA Chief Information Officer, Public Health, Health IT, Northrop Grumman Corporation. Moderator was Dan Rivera, Area Director, Government, Education and Medical Region, Enterprise Solution Sales, Intel Americas, Inc.
The Twitter hash tag was #GAHealthIT, and anyone could participate by going to Tweetchat and typing GAHealthIT in the search box. Beginning at 7:55, announcements, questions and comments were posted to that everyone could chime in. Messages or questions could be sent to @gahealthit in advance of the meeting.
