The Nonprofit Technology Conference, which drew 650 charity technology officials, consultants, and companies last year, will take place March 23-25 in Chicago. The meeting grew out of the Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network Roundup and the e-Philanthropy Conference, which were combined for the first time last year.

Conference sessions will focus on topics such as Internet fund raising, online advocacy, electronic communications with supporters, and new technologies.

Among the speakers: Esther Dyson, the founding chairwoman of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, the nonprofit group that oversees the allocation of Internet addresses. Her speech will focus on how information technology can be used to help solve social problems.
