Successful CIO's are much more actively engaged in setting strategy, enabling flexibility and change, and solving business problems, not just IT problems. You may be asking yourself, how can I as the CIO, make the biggest impact on behalf of the entire organization? To answer that question, IBM listened to over 2,500 CIO's worldwide. Ed will share with you the results of these face-to-face conversations, along with IBM's statistical and financial analyses which clearly define the changing demands on CIO's worldwide!

10:00AM - 11:00AM Session 1 Ballroom C Michael Eckert Thomas Conry Barney Krucoff Samia Melhem	“GIS AND LOCATION BASED ANALYTICS” Moderated by: Michael Eckert, VP, FortiusOne and SIM Board member Panelists: Thomas Conry, GIS Manager, Fairfax County Barney Krucoff, Geospatial Technology Manager, District of Columbia Samia Melhem, Global Info. & Communication Tech., The World Bank Group Discussion: Traditional Business Intelligence has looked at the 'who', 'what', and 'why' around data, but has ignored the 'where'. Location is a core analytical dimension. Within this data lies a vast pool of intelligence that largely remains untapped for organizations. Business Intelligence (BI) tools, such as dashboards, reporting and On-Line Analytical Processing (OLAP) allow decision-makers to analyze data and information in order to make better decisions. Summarized data from operational systems are presented to users in interactive charts, graphs and reports. Most experts agree that about 80% of data has a spatial component that could be used to enhance the BI user experience with map displays and spatial analysis tools. However, according to Ventana Research, 61 per cent of organizations found that using location data helps to improve customer services, yet only 28 per cent of organizations are truly innovative in their business when it comes to the context of location. In this track we will learn how GIS and Location Based Analytics are making their way out of specialized departments and moving into the enterprise mainstream.

Session 3 Fairfax Room Eric Naiburg	"INFORMATION GOVERNANCE: SMARTER STRATEGIES TO MAXIMIZE YOUR INFORMATION SUPPLY CHAIN" Presented by: Eric Naiburg, Director, IBM Discussion: The volume and variety of digital information is exploding as our Planet becomes more instrumented, interconnected and intelligent. Current economic times require corporations and governments to analyze new information faster and make timely decisions for achieving business goals within budget. Look around you and think about all the new types of information your organization is collecting that it previously did not capture 10, 5, or even a single year ago. How do you manage and protect this information today? Is your organization able to harness this data to drive smarter business outcomes and ensure your company is prepared for the future? In this session we will discuss best practices to master the complete lifecycle of information, establish sustainable management of information quality and security, and enable IT to make information more accessible and meaningful to the business. Learn how an effective governance strategy can enable IT and business to collaborate more effectively by ensuring information is aligned to business goals. Understand how your organization can take a holistic approach to improve operational efficiency by reducing risk and wasted time and cost associated with finding, understanding, and managing information.
