Microsoft Across America -- New look. New products. New opportunities.

Host your next event in a revamped Microsoft Across America truck.

The Microsoft Across America team invites you to host your next event in a technology showroom on wheels. The Microsoft Across America truck is an exciting offering from MicrosoftPartnerEvents.com. Our 42-foot truck is fully equipped with the latest innovations from Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Avery, CardScan, Cisco, Citrix, and Verizon Wireless. From hardware to software, it features state-of-the-art solutions for small and midsize businesses.

Get Ready for a New Day.

Now is the time to create an event that spotlights your own launch of the new Microsoft software solutions, including Windows Vista™ and the 2007 Microsoft® Office system. In addition to our revamped truck, Launch Central provides resources to help you benefit from the rising demand surrounding the new product launches.

As a partner, you can reserve the truck (including driver) at no cost.* For more details, click here. Microsoft also provides:

•  A highly trained Microsoft Technology Specialist to assist you with on-board presentations and demonstrations

•  A Microsoft Event Manager to assist you with the planning and logistics for your event

•  Customizable marketing resources to help you promote your event


This is just one of many unique opportunities available to you through the Microsoft Partner Events website.
