As companies operate in more and more countries, either through

other companies, or through acquisitions, opportunities for women to work
in a number of different countries increase. Ms. Crandell will address the
challenges for companies and for women as managers and employees as they
post women around the world.
"Forging global alliances as a female executive is a topic that is near and
dear to my heart," said

distinguished colleagues and to support the advancement of women."

Egenera's global marketing, business development, and alliance efforts to
build its leadership position in the fast growing global market of data

Egenera in forging lasting alliances with companies like Dell and Fujitsu
and her experience in hiring and promoting women, as well as her previous
experiences as Vice President of Global Marketing at enterprise software
firm Ariba, where she managed a global marketing organization, give her a
unique global perspective into the challenges women face as executives,
managers and employees.
