"As we work on the session content for KioskCom 2004, we are very excited to speak with leading companies that have deployed self-service kiosk technology projects," said Lawrence Dvorchik, executive director, in a news release.

"We look to feature the unique and strategic deployments in our conference sessions, to enable other organizations to learn the necessary strategies, tools and techniques to make their kiosk projects successful."
