Advisory: Treb Ryan CEO of OpSource Keynotes China SaaS Summit

Santa Clara, Calif., August 24, 2007 --

WHO:		Treb Ryan, CEO, OpSource, Inc., the SaaS delivery experts.
WHAT:		Treb Ryan will keynote the inaugural China SaaS Summit, sponsored by CCW Research. Ryan will discuss an emerging concept within the SaaS ecosystem – that successful SaaS companies think of themselves as Web companies and not software companies. This is a significant paradigm shift for most software companies, because the traditional thinking is that on-demand applications are a replacement for traditional business software. While SaaS is payable per transaction (monthly, number of users, etc.), many software companies incorrectly believe that the software is developed, sold and delivered in the same manner as traditional licensed software. That couldn't be further from the truth, or, the reality, of success.
WHERE:		Presidential Plaza Hotel, Beijing, China
WHEN:		Ryan's keynote is 11:20am-12:00pm on August 28. He joins industry luminaries such as Chen Wei, Director, MII, Cao KaiBin, VP, CCW Research and Shen Xin, VP, China Telecom.
