The 8th International Cloud Expo is on June 6 - 9, 2011 at Javits Convention Center in New York City.

This is the largest cloud event in the world, and "The Only Enterprise IT Event in 2011 Covering the Entire Scope of the Cloud Computing Spectrum."

On February 24, 2007, the day the term "cloud computing" was coined, Cloud Expo was announced, and that year the first Cloud Expo took place in New York City with 450 delegates.

"Today, Cloud Expo has more than 7,000 delegates and over 200 sponsors and exhibitors," says Jeremy Geelan, Conference Chair, 8th Cloud Computing Expo.

"Cloud" has become synonymous with "computing" and "software" in two short years. Cloud Expo is the new PC Expo, Comdex, and InternetWorld of our decade. By 2012, more than 50,000 delegates per year will participate in Cloud Expo worldwide."

The Opening Keynote address is by Steve Schuckenbrock of Dell, on "Parting of the Clouds – Finding the Real Business Value."
