Chess Master CEO Pegasystems' Alan Trefler on incorporating chess strategies to the job.

There's a full Chessbase report on the rapid match so I won't bore you with the actual match details but my concern lies with the list of sponsors:

All of these different companies sponsored the rapid match event between Leko and Anand but who are they? Where's the story behind this match? Who approached the companies to get sponsorship for this event? These are questions that I have which have gone unanswered. It's nobodies fault really ... I just simply don't know who to ask. It's my opinion that this sort of information should not only be public (I'm sure it already is public) but it should also be advertised. The people who brought the organizers to the table should get huge public praise for their efforts and get the word out on their business skills. It could mean better jobs for them and bigger status for chess.
