IT budgets are shrinking, and you know that investing in emerging technology will give your organization a competitive advantage in the era of digital disruption. You know that innovation is no longer a luxury, but a necessity to remain competitive. You're ready to make the case for new and emerging technologies.
Connected Enterprise is not for every CIO.
Connected Enterprise is for the forward-thinking CIO. CIOs who attend Connected Enterprise are not interested in simply maintaining IT systems. CIOs who attend Connected Enterprise are interested in challenging the status quo, breaking down silos, and experimenting with new business models in order to introduce emerging technologies to their organizations.
Forward-thinking CIOs Benefit from Connected Enterprise's Technology Optimization & Innovation Programming
Connected Enterprise's Technology Optimization & Innovation sessions analyze the strategic balance between investing in innovation while optimizing the cost of providing support to existing IT systems. New economic realities and shrinking IT budgets necessitate that IT organizations become better at justifying new projects, more efficient in delivering IT services, and smarter at adopting new technologies that can deliver business value while reducing costs. Organizations must work together to optimize the cost reduction that funds innovation, and learn how to balance the needs of business with the responsibilities of IT. Is your organization ready for the shift to innovation? Have you developed a strategy to fund innovation with optimization?
Connected Enterprise's Technology Optimization & Innovation sessions will teach you how to create a strategy to balance innovation and IT optimization. You will discover new technologies and learn how to justify innovation projects to your organization. You'll learn how to instill a culture of innovation in your organization from other CIOs who successfully implemented disruptive technologies in their own organizations.
