AUG Chicago Presents
A "State of Adobe" Address
Since most of us rely on Adobe software for our livelihood, what they do can have a major affect on what we do. Now that we are into the second release of the Creative Suite since the merger of Adobe & Macromedia , it is an appropriate time to take an evaluation of what was the new "Adobe" is up to.
At the January 19 meeting of AUG Chicago, The Chicago Area Adobe Users Groups. our guest presenter, Mason Dixon, is going to give a "State of Adobe" address, and share his observations of where Adobe is headed. The merger was a coming together of very different strategies of product marketing. To say a ton of changes have happened with Adobe and their software would be putting it mildly. Adobe has evolved from it's design centric beginnings to one reaching in many different directions, many you might not even be familiar with.
Mason plans to discuss how Adobe's current course is affecting everything from their product development, user interfaces, to innovation strategies, growing services offering and more. But more importantly, how are all these factors going to affect you, the end user? What new challenges will they present? What skill sets you will need? How can you capitalize on these changes?.
Mason will be sharing his observations, and I am sure you have you own. We are hoping to generate dialogue, so everyone has a better grasp of what we might expect from our rapidly changing industry.
