Video: 60-Second Pitch: Voice recognition tech

Series 3, episode 6: The clock is ticking…

CIOs spend countless hours listening to suppliers pitch their technology, so silicon.com decided to make the process a lot more entertaining by putting the vendors on the spot. Welcome to the 60-Second Pitch.

Suppliers have just one minute to pitch their product or service to a panel of current and former heads of IT, who then have the opportunity to quiz the vendor before giving the technology a green or red light - just for fun, of course.

In this episode, Brendan Treacy, CEO of voice recognition software maker Vicorp, pitches his company's self-service voice technology to former executive director of operations for The Post Office, Ric Francis; head of IT at Ecotec Research & Consulting, David Supple; and operations director at silicon.com's publisher CBS Interactive, Fiona Davis.
