Sandra Kearney is one of virtual worlds leading voices. As IBM's Global Director of Emerging 3D Internet and virtual Business she's responsible in large part for Big Blue's push into virtual worlds like Second Life, and Active Worlds. IBM's engagement in the 3D internet goes much deeper than that though. In fact, barely a day goes by where you don't read about some new project or initiative to further the 3D internet for business.

Sandra will present the keynote address on Day 3 of the vBusiness Expo on April 26th, and may also (with a bit of luck) appear via a mixed reality link up from her engagement at the Federal Consortium for Virtual Worlds conference in Washington.

If you've not already registered for vBusiness Expo, please do. It's the first large scale public virtual worlds business event and is free to all. We want vBusiness Expo to become an accessible, geographically independent forum for discussion of the business value of virtual worlds, and we'd like you to join us.
