‘Leveraging colliding technology, business and cultural trends to establish a competitive advantage in your organisation’
We are in for a very exciting year ahead. 2013 will see many trends collide, and through those collisions we will see new opportunities emerging. Changing markets, new technologies such as cloud computing and big data, and other key factors including collaboration, social media and influence of generation Y will shape the way we do business in the future. Find out how to leverage these exciting trends to establish a competitive advantage in your organisation and what's next for business and IT.
Converge begins with a keynote from leading futurist David Rowan, Editor at Wired sharing his vision of the future. David will take attendees on a ride through the key technological, governmental, social, medical, environmental, and economic trends that will, in their view, impact businesses and reshape the world. Find out what's happening now, in the future and how to anticipate what's coming next. Find out what are the top trends that will affect your customers, employees, partners and competitors that you must know about now to better compete.
This is followed by a series of ‘quick fire’ spotlight talks on a wide range of subjects to foster learning, inspiration - and to spark debate and discussions that matter. 5 speakers each take a 10-minute slot. There are no breakout groups. Everyone shares the same experience. We enforce a short talk time as this results in higher quality presentations, forcing our speakers to carefully structure and focus their talks.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to gather expert advice from industry specialists, and to share their views with their peers over networking drinks and canapés.
Who should attend?
Converge is an exclusive event designed for senior level decision makers, with attendance limited to a select group of professionals from leading organisations and public sector enterprises.
