Creating Order out of Chaos: Virtual Conference on Enterprise 2.0
by Joe McKendrick
It couldn’t be more appropriate for the subject of Enterprise 2.0 than a virtual conference? ebizQ will be hosting a virtual conference covering various aspects of Enterprise 2.0 opportunities and challenges on July 23rd. (Free registration required.)
David Mitchell Smith, VP & Gartner Fellow, will kick off the event with a discussion of how innovations in the consumer Web 2.0 space are translating into enterprise applications. He will also discuss what lies beyond Web 2.0 — and it isn’t Web 3.0.
Smith’s presentation will be followed by a panel discussion on how the Web 2.0 and SOA fit together. Dan Woods (Evolved Media), Nathaniel Palmer (Workflow Management Coalition), and Puneet Gupta (Connectbeam) will debate about whether end users actually be able to create their own mashup applications, and how IT should control and manage this new breed of applications.
Rob Koplowitz, analyst with Forrester Research, will then talk about chaos — and how to leverage Web 2.0 technology entering the enterprise and still plan for maintaining process, system, and data integrity against an increasingly chaotic backdrop.
