Opening Keynote: The New Master Architecture – Enabling the Boundary-free Enterprise Speaker: William S. McNee, Founder and CEO, Saugatuck Technology We are now witnessing the emergence of a new Master Architecture that is not based on a single computing-platform paradigm, but rather on multiple technologies and platforms that build synergies among themselves through loosely-coupled and opportunistic exchanges of value. Today’s businesses and individuals are less encumbered by constraints of time and place, doing their work through a new array of time- and location-independent computing capabilities – Cloud, Mobile, Social/Collaboration and Data Analytics (CMSA) plus Integration – that make the Boundary-free Enterprise™ possible. Integration is the glue that links these capabilities together and joins them to on-premises data assets in data centers where mission-critical money systems still operate behind highly-secure firewalls. This presentation will highlight key trends driving the adoption of Cloud IT and Cloud Business strategies and the emergence of the Boundary-free Enterprise™. Featured Presentation: Rethinking IT and Reinventing Business with Cloud Speaker: Paul Loftus, General Manager, Cloud Managed Services and Offering Management, GTS, IBM Many organizations are adopting cloud, attracted by the IT efficiencies, speed and flexibility that cloud delivers. But is cloud only about rethinking the IT model? To fully realize the potential of cloud, organizations also need to understand the opportunity for cloud-enabled business transformation and innovation. In this session, Mr. Loftus will share insights from an IBM/EIU study of cloud's role in enabling business transformation and innovation that incorporated input from over 500 global business leaders. He will also provide tangible examples of how cloud is being used for business transformation and innovation within an industry context . Panel: The Cloud and Business Innovation – Guiding IT and the Enterprise Session Leader: Bruce Guptill, SVP and Head of Research, Saugatuck Technology Panelists: Rich Roseman, VP and Corporate CIO at News Corp, Yuvi Kochar, CTO at The Washington Post Company, Greg Buoncontri, EVP and CIO at Pitney Bowes The Boundary-free Enterprise™ brings big and unexpected change in the roles and responsibilities of enterprise IT and its leaders. This session spotlights the key changes underway – what is working and what is not in the Cloud today – and provides guidance and best practices from skilled CIOs and CTOs on how to anticipate, manage, and build better IT and business from those changes. |

Presentor: William S. McNee and Bruce Guptill, Saugatuck Technology, James Ericson, Editorial Director, Information-Management.com Panel: Cloud Infrastructure – Maximizing Value at What Cost and Risk? Session Leader: Charlie Burns, VP, Saugatuck Technology Panelists: Treb Ryan, Chief Strategy Officer at Dimension Data Cloud Solutions, Emery Csulak, Deputy Chief Information Security Officer at the Department of Homeland Security, Graham Hill, SVP Cloud Infrastructure at Citi, Dr. Robert Cohen, Director, ECLC at TMForum. Featured Presentation: The Business Value of Digital Transformation Speaker: Michael Pearl, Principal and US Cloud Leader, PwC How are enterprises evolving their business rapidly enough to match the pace of global competition and technological change? How can emerging technologies help improve customer engagement, drive new service lines and revenue streams, reinvent go-to-market models and optimize operational models? How does this digital transformation impact strategy, people, process, governance and risk profile? This presentation leverages data from PwC's 15th Global CEO Survey and PwC's 4th Digital IQ survey -- as well as industry case studies -- to help enterprises consider their strategic digital transformation journey and priorities. Panel: Cloud Business Applications and Platforms: A New Paradigm Session Leader: William McNee, Founder and CEO, Saugatuck Technology Panelists: Colleen Smith, VP at Progress Software, Scott Skellenger, Sr. Director at Illumina, Joe McKendrick, Blogger at Forbes and ZDNet, Ali Shadman, SVP at Infor While the deployment of new software-as-a-service (SaaS) business solutions continue to dominate spending in the Cloud, the ability to extend and integrate them with others and on-premises applications via Platform-as-a-Service capabilities has begun to create an advantage for providers in both offering categories, and to solidify their ISV networks. This applies to both stand-alone, best-of-breed Cloud Business Solutions but also collections of offerings that are being offered via loosely coupled architectures, as customers increasingly voice a preference for single-vendor and multi-vendor suites when focusing on core systems of record. This panel will look at examples of this new and emerging paradigm, their advantages and challenges, risks and rewards. Our panelists will present their views on the key issues driving demand for SaaS solutions, as well as provide examples of how the new paradigms of Cloud Business Applications and Cloud Development Platforms can provide value through synergy, as well as present new management challenges. |

Will Social Nets and Collaboration tools function as standalone platforms for linking ad hoc organizations around work for information exchange? Or will these tools integrate with business workflows to enable collaborative information exchanges and decision processes? What role will Mobility play to increase the utility of collaboration and social networking in such business functions as CRM/SFA, Customer Support, Finance and Accounting, ERP, GRC, Human Resources, Procurement, Supply Chain and others?
