The event will take place on August 12, 2015 at the JW Marriott. 
IBJ would not release the names of the nominees for the CTO awards, so it will be exciting to see who the finalists and winners are! The finalists and winners will be presented in IBJ's August 17th issue, so be on the lookout for that!

IT Trivia! 

Congratulations to Glenn Estrada for answering both April's and last month's trivia questions! And congratulations to Tom Godden and Geoff Endris for solving last month's trivia question(be sure to tell them they are a genius if you see them)! We asked what the password was that Matthew Broderick used to hack into the military system in the movie "WarGames." The answer was "Joshua" and it was the name of Dr.Faulken's son! Thank you to everyone who participated! **Did you know that John Lennon was supposed to play the role of Dr. Faulken at one point?** 

Since apparently our last trivia question was "too easy" for some of you, this time we thought of something a bit trickier.
In the movie "Hackers," Dade phones into the security desk of the TV station he is hacking into. What name does he give himself when he makes the call?

If you think you know the answer, then send it  here and we will post the winners in our next Newsletter!
