Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland, and a master of science degree from MIT's Sloan School.

At the 2004 CES conference, HP outlined its strategy for adding value across the entire digital entertainment value chain from the creation and protection of digital content to the distribution and consumption of content. The company has since delivered on its promise to consumers. An example is HP's recent announcement highlighting its expansion into multiple new consumer digital entertainment and digital photography categories. 2005 CES participants can expect the same level of innovation from HP, including strategic partnership and product announcements that represent the company's ongoing dedication to the digital entertainment market. Fiorina joins Bill Gates, Chairman and Chief Software Architect of Microsoft Corp., Craig Barrett, CEO of Intel Corp. and Ed Zander, Chairman and CEO of Motorola Inc., as confirmed keynote speakers for the 2005 International CES.
