  It's fine to state where you work if: - It's relevant to the question (i.e. the question has to do with a particular application at work). - You're at an industry/trade show (where "where you work" is more important to fellow attendees than "who you are"). - It provides information the speaker needs (i.e. so that she'll know you're a colleague/partner/competitor). It's not okay if: - You waste any more time on your employment than "I'm So and So, developer at Initrode, and I'd like to know..." - You're going to hijack the time to talk about your company. - You're trying to "get some free marketing".
