RESTON, VA--(Marketwire - October 23, 2009) -

What:

With 48 of the 50 states currently mired in serious financial and budgetary shortfalls, state CIO's are being asked to implement technologies that allow the government to do more with less and cut costs.

Video teleconferencing (VTC) technologies enable state government employees to communicate face-to-face regardless of where they are. This enhances teleworking, helps increase productivity for government employees and allows states to save money on resources and infrastructure budgets. VTC also enables inexpensive solutions for education and healthcare systems by allowing continued high-quality service at a significant savings to the tax payer.

At this year's National Association of State Chief Information Officers (NASCIO) Annual Conference, executives from TANDBERG will be available to demonstrate and discuss how the company's innovative VTC solutions can enhance communication and collaboration between state government employees and allow state governments to serve constituents while reducing the budget. TANDBERG is the leading global provider of telepresence, high-definition video teleconferencing and mobile video products and services, and is a Gold Sponsor of the conference.
