In appreciation of your partnership, we are excited to host you and a personal guest at The
Ritz-Carlton, Naples, a five-star, five-diamond resort situated in the heart of Naples, Florida. This exclusive, invitation-only event offers you and your guest an all-inclusive networking and relaxation experience in what is considered the crown jewel of South Florida.

During the retreat, you'll have the opportunity to strategize with top Microsoft executives and a small group of select partners from across the country while gaining insight into our business plans and objectives for the coming years. One-on-one discussions coupled with networking sessions and group activities will shed light on our partnering vision for 2009 and beyond, future technologies, market investments and industry trends. Through it all, you'll have ample time to meet and mingle with top resellers, distributors, national and global system integrators, hosters, strategic public sector partners and independent software vendors – a ripe opportunity to align with some of our key business partners.

To ensure an enjoyable and refreshing experience for both you and your guest, we've balanced these casual business meetings with an array of recreational and relaxing activities and evening events in this sophisticated enclave known as Florida's Paradise Coast.

With white sand beaches, championship golf courses, renowned restaurants, awe-inspiring art galleries and a wealth of water activities, there's something for everyone.

We look forward to hosting you in Florida for our retreat.
