IV. Exhibit/Sponsor Invitation for WebNet 98
---------------------------------------------------------------
If your company or organization has a product or service that furthers
this goal, you need to participate in WebNet 98.  AACE invites you to
Exhibit and participate in WebNet 98.  WebNet offers exhibitors the
opportunity to interact with top level developers, educators, researchers
and administrators gathered for the specific purpose of exploring the
present and future state of the WWW, Internet, and Intranet.  

This is your opportunity to participate in the exchange of information
with over 1,000 attendees seeking the latest developments, applications,
and practical research which will enable them to produce marketable and
useful applications, support their organizations' investment in technology,
and make informed purchasing decisions. There is not another conference or
trade show that offers you exposure to such a diverse gathering of decision
makers.
