Adoption of new and maturing technology represents risk to organizations risk that, managed badly, can result in delays. This panel is chaired by Ron Lichty, the head of Charles Schwab's group for Java technology, which was created shortly after Schwab decided to move its entire application domain development to Java technology. Lichty's mission was to ensure the success of Schwab's transition to Java technology. As the number of projects has grown from dozens into hundreds, Schwab's group for Java technology has not only grown but morphed its services offering to fit the maturity levels of its various project partners. At last year's JavaOne SM conference, JavaPro magazine awarded Schwab's group for Java technology the Java TM Technology Achievement Award for Best Application of Java technology in the Enterprise.
