• Macromedia Case Study profiling the use of Breeze for the delivery of the Kuhkenah Smart International Conference - “The success of the Kuh-ken-ah Conference directly depended on our ability to deliver a platform that would work in some of the most remote areas on Earth, and Breeze delivered. Presenters were able to ramp up in no time, and it proved to be a flexible and effective way for other indigenous people to learn from one another. In the end, we were able to connect groups from as far away as Argentina, Guatemala, Australia, and Tanzania through Macromedia Breeze. It was a remarkable experience.” For the archived and final report information about this international conference visit http://smart.knet.ca/international
