  "Transforming Contact Centers with Speech and IP"
  Moderator: Jack Chase, Director of Product Management
  Roberto Dati, Project Manager, Loquendo.
  
  Many application developers are adding automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech (TTS) technology to their IVR platforms, as speech is now a proven technology for providing a more effective IVR interface. In parallel, IP-based architectures are enabling new virtual contact center offerings with tremendous flexibility and scalability. A panel of industry experts will discuss how these two trends are creating significant opportunity for contact center system developers.
