eZ Systems gathers every January the eZ Ecosystem to quickly look back at the 12 passed months and look ahead into a new year. On January 21st and 22nd, two events will take place in Geneva which is a very central and convenient location for a conference as well as a growing market place for eZ. The Community Day will be the occasion to get presented with the new community platform http://share.ez.no, how it works and how we can make it an hyperactive, attractive and fun tool for eZ Publish users. The in-depth changes about the way the eZ Community lives will be exposed, and you will in this regard meet the community members who decided to join the share.ez.no team.

During the Partner Day, partners from all over the world meet up to get updates and insights about how eZ is planing the future. This day is very important to eZ to get partners’ feedback and all discussions around the further strategy, roadmap and technology. eZ Partners will be able to meet eZ’s CEO, Christoph Rau, for the first time. It is key for Partners to attend in order to get updated about the vision of the new management team as well as about the 2010 strategy. As last year, Partners will be able to meet the Board of Directors of eZ during a Panel session at the end of the day.

eZ Systems is listed among Google, IBM, Apple and Facebook The EContent 100 list represents the best of the digital content companies world wide that matter the most in the industry. eZ Systems has been listed on the EContent 100 list 3 times during the last 4 years eZ Systems is listed in the Content Management category, and it is defined as follows: Content Management CM and its kin-ECM, WCM, DAM, MAM, TCM, and so on-are the darlings of technology acronyms. CM’s predecessors, document management and knowledge management, along with new buddies such as globalization and localization tools, nip at its heels as it leads the pack as the end-all and do-all for managing today’s amorphous information masses. Yet while content management purports to be all things to all people, its true power may actually lie in its flexibility to change shape to fit each new business problem set before it.

The companies were chosen by a panel of international experts including Tony Byrne who is the founder of CMS Watch, Paula J. Hane who is news bureau chief for Information Today, and Martin White who is managing director of Intranet Focus, Ltd. For a full overview of the list, visit this the EContent site
