BII Group's SIP Technology Conference 2007 will be held in conjunction with the SIP Forum's SIPit21 in Beijing, China, which is also co-hosted by the BII Group. It is the first International SIP conference in China.

The SIP Technology Conference will be held on November 8th, 2007 (SIPit21 runs from November 5-9). The goal of the conference is to allow Chinese organizations and companies become more familiar with SIP technology, get the most updated information about SIP products and services, and explore the cooperation opportunities that exist between Eastern and Western companies and individuals.

BII expects more than 200 attendees to the conference, including system architects that are integrating SIP into new or legacy systems, development managers and software engineers seeking insight into the places where SIP tends to surprise implementers, and deployment engineers and managers interested in how SIP behaves and how to avoid the problems already encountered in real-world environments.

The conference will include keynote presentations, conference sessions, panel discussions and other educational opportunities.
