LUNCHEON KEYNOTE - "PULSE: THE INTERNET AS THE ULTIMATE MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENT FOR BUSINESS AND GOVERNMENT"
Presented by: Douglas W. Hubbard, President, Hubbard Decision Research
Discussion: In this session, Doug Hubbard, author of How to Measure Anything and The Failure of Risk Management will present his latest research into a new way to use the internet. As more people use Twitter, Facebook, Craigslist, ebay and Amazon, it is become more feasible to use the “tracks” they leave behind as an important source of business intelligence. Reports on the frequency of particular searches on Google can be used to determine if unemployment is decreasing or even to determine where flu outbreaks occur first. Ranks of books on Amazon can be analyzed to determine whether housing is recovering or if more people are going into their own business. New methods for searching blogs and twitter can give you the “buzz” on your company. The internet has become the most powerful socio-economic measurement tool in history – and is yet vastly underutilized for this purpose. Find out what’s next for this new way of analyzing trends in business, government, and popular culture.

Moderated by: Mark Griesbaum, CIO, Cardean Learning Group
Panelists: Mike Kozlowski, VP & CIO, Rust-Oleum Corporation
Ellen Barry, CIO, Metro Pier & Exposition Authority
Patricia Coffey, President, SIM International
Discussion: Market growth opportunities are waiting for your businesses in 2010 and beyond. Now that the financial “crisis” has been averted globally, there is no doubt that global economies are recovering. What has your business, and better yet, your IT department been working on to aid in your institution’s business plans for when the economy picks up? While companies have certainly been cutting costs to the bone to survive, it will be those companies that also set aside resources and capital to set the stage for a “growth period” that follows any recession, no matter how severe. You will hear from leading IT executives as to how they accomplished this for their institutions over the past 15 – 18 months.

"BREAKTHROUGH INNOVATION WITHOUT BREAKING THE BANK"
Pesented by: Patricia Coffey, VP IT, Allstate Insurance Company
Discussion: Putting innovation on hold in tough economic times isn’t an option. Ideas for new products, services, and business models as well as improved processes for doing more with less are essential. Moreover, tougher times create greater receptivity to out-of-the-box thinking. But resources for innovating are increasingly scarce. CIOs and other executives must find ways to enable breakthrough innovation on a budget. SIM’s Advanced Practices Council (APC) members have been learning how to enable breakthrough innovation even on a budget from leading researchers and other thought leaders. This presentation will share the highlights of what APC members have learned. Topics to be covered include: Creating a culture of innovation, Leveraging networks to identify innovative solutions, Managing costs and risks, Executing to capture value.

"A SMARTER APPROACH TO ARCHIVING"
Moderated by: Eric Naiburg, Director, IBM
Panelist: Laurence Leong, Program Director, Compliance
Discussion: We continue in the midst of an Information Explosion. The amount of information captured is growing rapidly as evidenced by IDC estimates that 45GBs of data currently exists for each person on the planet with a staggering growth rate of 60% annually. Not only do we capture this information, but we are mandated to retain it and must be able to easily search and decipher the information all while reducing costs, not hindering the performance of existing applications and protecting the privacy of the information at the same time.
This tremendous growth is forcing organizations to take a smart approach to managing the information across the organization, with flexible archival deployment options - on premise, appliance, cloud or hybrid. It starts with classification and archiving the information, making it accessible. In this session, you will learn strategies for managing the information explosion including archiving, storage and best practices which can be part of a greater information governance process. Some of the topics will include:
- How do I even identify what information should be archived?
- How do I manage information over its lifespan and how do I make archive management and infrastructure choices?
- How do I deliver Information Governance in a consistent, defensible and cost effective manner?
