Checkout a few of the software applications available free to all SIC attendees:

Attendees of the 20th annual Software Industry Conference (SIC) in Dallas on July 15 - 17, 2010 will be receiving some free developers' tools worth much more than the price of admission to the conference.

Each attendee will receive a copy of /n software's Red Carpet Subscription, a $1,499(US) package that includes powerful components for Internet communications, security, and messaging. Conference attendees will also receive the latest version of the TuneUp Utilities from TuneUp Corporation and a 2 gigabyte USB-Key for TuneUp Utilities.

The Software Industry Conference is a three day event that includes dozens of informative, educational breakout sessions covering a wide variety of topics that are critical to the success of Independent Software Developers (ISVs). It culminates with a Networking Gala Dinner that gives software developers and publishers an opportunity to form partnerships and alliances.

The conference includes more than forty educational seminars and presentations that are designed to help developers sell more software. Presentations by industry experts include topics such as profiting from Google Adwords, marketing more effectively, providing income-producing customer support, working with translation and localization services, sending press releases, developing Software as a Service (SaaS) applications, avoiding legal pitfalls, reducing chargebacks, and creating affiliate networks.

There is plenty of time to network with other software developers and software industry service providers. The conveniently-located daily breakfasts in the Hyatt Regency DFW Hotel make it easy for conference attendees to meet and socialize with fellow industry members. You can even attend the annual meetings and luncheons of two industry trade associations, ESC and ASP.

The casual SIC conferences are known for their family-friendly atmosphere. Many software developers turn their trips to SIC into mini-vacations.

As always, the conference will present awards to honor developers in several key software categories. SIC's Exhibit Night features the best software development products and services from leading industry vendors.

Registration at the door costs $299(US), or costs $249 if you register online http://www.sic.org/register.asp by July 13. Deeply discounted hotel rooms at the Hyatt Regency DFW are available to all conference attendees.

A word of caution to those considering attending the Software Industry Conference. There are two other conferences at the hotel that overlap. If you want to get a room at the hotel (and the low guarenteed rate that the conference negotiated) then you MUST book it soon. It is very likely the hotel will sell out well before the conference. To register and get the discounted rate please use the following - http://www.sic.org/hotel.asp
