Last week I reported on my visit to Iotum's offices where they demonstrated not only their Relevance Engine in operation but also the Pronto Conferencing audio conferencing product they were about to introduce at DEMO 2006 yesterday. A superbly well executed presentation in spite of one technical glitch.

Last night they learned that they are "DEMO Gods" having won an award for one of the top ten presentations amongst the 70 or so given over the previous two days. As they flew home I received Messenger messages from them recovering from their shock as they floated along on cloud nine!

And now the real challenge begins ... bringing their products and ideas to market. It will be quite a ride for the entire Iotum team that will build on both Alec's and Howard's wealth of technology business experience.
