Claro Software Dr. Alasdair King alasdair.king@clarosoftware.com Skype Alasdairking My name is Alasdair King, from Claro Software. My contact details are up there on the slide and I’ll be around all day. Also, this presentation will be available from the website, and you can always mail me for a copy, so you don’t need to write anything down. I’d normally click buttons and show you our products in operation, but I want to cover quite a few things and I don’t want to overrun, since you can’t take in more than twenty minutes or so and lunch is soon. So anything you see up here, do come and see me for a demo. You should also all have a VIP card: this gets you a free copy of ClaroRead for PC, or ClaroRead for Mac, and a free account with our cloud services. So if you don’t manage to get to me, you can get a free copy of the software for your machine and check it out yourself.

Assistive Software Development at Claro “Assistive software development and publishing is what we do at Claro” We’ve been around a while, and we know our stuff.

Claro Range * Windows (2005), Mac (2008), iPad and iPhone (2012)… I’ve got three things to do, so I’m going to do: ClaroRead: still our biggest product, and there are always a few people who don’t know it. Apps and Chrome Apps, because Apps are huge now. ClaroRead Cloud, because that’s just as important for site licencees and businesses. Leave a couple of minutes for questions at the end, but do shout out, or mail me, or see me at lunch. * Windows (2005), Mac (2008), iPad and iPhone (2012)…
