Business Benefits of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is a new server program that is
part of the 2007 Microsoft Office system. Your organization can use
Office SharePoint Server 2007 to facilitate collaboration, provide
content management features, implement business processes, and supply
access to information that is essential to organizational goals and
processes. 

You can quickly create SharePoint sites that support specific content
publishing, content management, records management, or business
intelligence needs. You can also conduct effective searches for people,
documents, and data, participate in forms-driven business processes, and
access and analyze large amounts of business data. 

There are many presentations on SharePoint that describe it's feature
set and technical capabilities.  The goal of this presentation is to
highlight and descibe the business benefits, or real solutions,
available with SharePoint 2007 implementation.
