8:00am – 9:00am: Registration and Continental Breakfast

9:00am-9:50am: How IT can Participate in your Digital Business Transformation – and make an Impact!

Jim MacLennan, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer, IDEX Corporation

In most traditional organizations, IT is a back-office function – focused on Operations and cost control, spending little time with Customers and Products. But in a company transforming into a Digital Business, teams that work with Information and Technology have a much greater change to participate in those connections – and will very probably be on the team that reacts to and delivers on the ideas that are generated. Should IT play a key role in a Digital Business transformation? This presentation will provide some context for the idea – with real-world examples and stories of what works and what does not.

9:50am -10:20am: Refreshment Break

10:20am-11:10am: The Four Letter Words of Digital Transformation

Ed Soo Hoo, Data Center Alliances, Lenovo

Digital transformation is critical today for companies to survive, thrive and innovate. The combination of the perfect storms driving the consumer driven Applications Economy are forcing foundational changes in how IT leadership approaches their business units and their Dev/Ops/Sec/QA teams. Ed Soo Hoo will share how he uses four letter words to identify and drive the transformation changes and tipping points to help IT leaders engage, empower and enable their communities of developers/IT Ops to be more agile in delivering software faster – which link them more closely to their customers, make their teams more efficient, and better leverage their suppliers and key business partners.

Soo Hoo

11:10am-12:00pm: People, Places, and Things: An Event-Driven, Real-Time World

Blaine Mathieu, Chief Marketing and Product Officer, Vantiq

According to Gartner, a new generation of ‘event-driven applications’ will power the transformation of your business operations. They will do this by ingesting the real-time data streaming from your systems, devices, and people regarding the events constantly happening in and around your company. Continuously analyzing these event data streams enables the right action, at the right time, at the right place.

The pressures to become a ‘real-time business’ are building, driven by rapid advances in IoT, machine learning, augmented reality, robotics, and mobility. It is fundamentally your people that can and must drive agility and innovation but only if you enable them to work collaboratively with ‘machines’—the systems that are increasingly at the heart of your organization.

In this session, Blaine Mathieu, Chief Marketing and Product Officer of VANTIQ, will describe how it is now possible to quickly create truly transformative applications that can power your real-time business operations.

For many enterprises, the digital enterprise is almost exclusively about customer engagement.

The strength of the CIO-Business Leader relationship is vital to a company’s success, but can be challenging to navigate and manage.

In this session, attendees will learn from IT executives as to strategies that are using to work closely with the business, manage expectations of their teams, and drive business success.
