Tom Nies to Attend/Speak at Three Worldwide Events in Six Days
Cincinnati, Ohio – April 5, 2005 – Tom Nies, Cincom President and CEO, will be encouraging entrepreneurship and sharing the challenges of today’s global marketplace in a series of speeches and events scheduled from April 7-13 in Washington, D.C., USA and London, UK.
Event 1: Annual Awards Dinner of the Center for the Study of the Presidency
When: April 7, 2005
Where: Capital Ballroom of the J.W. Marriott, which is located at
1331 Pennsylvania Avenue N.W. in Washington D.C.
Cincom and its CEO, Tom Nies, will be recognized and honored during the 39th Annual Awards Dinner of the Center for the Study of the Presidency. The event is in conjunction with the establishment of the Cincom Scholar Fellowship.
Twice each year, this unique Study of the Presidency Fellows Program brings together top students from the best schools to Washington D.C. for an immersion into public policy. The students meet with national leaders from the White House and Congress, and write original papers on the subject of the presidency.
The Center brings together experts from government, academia, and the corporate world to discuss key issues facing the presidency. Although program initiatives change from time to time, all Center activities rest largely upon the following four pillars:
• Presidential Leadership • Executive-Legislative Relations
• Organizing for Leadership • Public Service
The Cincom Scholar Fellowship will be domiciled at the University of Cincinnati. The first topic of research for the Cincom Scholar will (tentatively) revolve around changing and improving tax policies to stimulate growth of mid-to-intermediate companies, foster job creation, drive innovation, and enhance U.S. competitiveness.
American Ambassador Max Kampleman will keynote the annual awards dinner and will also receive the Publius Award for bipartisan public service.
In attendance at the dinner will be over 600 D.C. insiders, journalists, White House staffers, and members of congress.
Event 2: NiesÂ’ Keynote on Tax Reform and Job Creation at
The Washington Center
When: April 8, 2005 at 11:30 a.m.
Where: The Washington Center in Washington D.C.
The second of these events is a keynote speech on tax reform and job creation that Tom Nies will deliver on April 8.
NiesÂ’ provocative views on the relaxation of taxation for corporations with revenues under $50 million were recently published in the October issue of the Manufacturer and January issue of British Industry.
Pivotal issues of debate in this program will include tax reform and job creation. Mr. Nies will speak based on his experience as a successful entrepreneur and former Ohio Federal Reserve Board member.
The keynote audience will consist of young professionals participating in the Governors Program of The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars, as well as the technology program and select media. This prestigious semester-long program hosts 75 rising stars in public policy from Mexico, Canada, and the United States. The select group of interns serves in professional positions across the family of institutions associated with international trade and investment-driven policy.
Event 3: Red Herring Venture Market Conference
When: April 13, 2005
Where: Park Lane Hilton, London
Tom Nies will also participate in a CEO Roundtable on April 13 at the Red Herring Venture Market Conference in London. The Roundtable, titled "Will Europe build another software giant?" includes Tom Nies; Bernard Liautaud, CEO of Business Objects; and Michael Lynch, CEO of Autonomy. One of the issues that will be addressed with this panel is how difficult it is for American software companies to do business in Europe and how that compares with European software firms that have been successful in the US.
