  In a candid discussion of the past, present and future of Adobe, company founders John Warnock and Chuck Geschke, along with current CEO Bruce Chizen will give attendees a rare glimpse into the struggles, triumphs and passion that turned a two-man operation into one of the world's leading software companies.

Over the past two decades, Adobe's technologies have become so ingrained in visual communications that virtually everything you see in magazines, flyers, brochures, billboards, Web pages, streaming video and blockbuster movies has been touched by at least one Adobe product.

In this roundtable discussion, Warnock, Geschke, and Chizen will discuss the company's beginnings, its impact on society, and the challenges and lessons learned along the way. Among the most public of those challenges was the passing of the torch to the next generation of management. How did they do it and why were they successful? The panel will also look to the future. What are Adobe’s plans for building upon their success and what are the challenges to maintaining market share?
