After two years of economic turmoil, positioning your enterprise for success in a changed world is easier said than done. The realities are different. The rules are unfamiliar. Emerging business opportunities are difficult to recognize, and even harder to exploit.

We’re in a historic transition—a unique and volatile mixture of challenge, opportunity and hope, where practices are unproven, principles are evolving and paradigms shift overnight.

The good news? Gartner Symposium/ITxpo is no stranger to change. For 20 years, our flagship conference has explored what’s new and predicted what’s next with confidence and accuracy. By engaging IT’s greatest thinkers in hard-hitting dialogue, discussion and debate while bringing Gartner analysts’ combined expertise and knowledge to life, Symposium/ITxpo has built a reputation among IT and business leaders as the most trusted source of insight, inspiration, tools and relationships in the world.

In this unprecedented period of change, Symposium/ITxpo is more relevant than ever. With new rules and realities come fresh opportunities to innovate, transform and grow. It’s an exciting time for CIOs and senior executives, one that’s ripe with possibility and rich in potential. There’s no better place to prepare for it than at Symposium/ITxpo 2010.

The clouds are lifting, revealing an entirely new landscape

Thought leadership

Gartner sessionsLeveraging the latest research collected from organizations worldwide, we offer hundreds of breakout sessions that focus on the issues that matter most in IT today—real-world information that will help you make better decisions and drive more successful initiatives.

Gartner analyst one-on-onesMeeting face-to-face with a Gartner analyst is an important part of the Symposium/ITxpo experience. You’ll talk one-on-one and get the objective, qualified guidance you need to be able to plan and invest wisely.

ScenariosNothing is more valuable than seeing tomorrow today. Our scenarios shed light on what’s coming in key technology and management areas over the next few years, based on the best available data and expert predictive skills of the industry’s most respected IT analysts.

Peer learning and interaction

Analyst-user roundtablesAll end-user attendees at Symposium/ITxpo are invited to register for analyst-user roundtables. These 12-person, 60-minute discussions moderated by a Gartner analyst offer valuable peer-to-peer exchange on issues that are integral to your business. Visit gartner.com/us/symposium to learn more about this year’s roundtables.

User roundtablesYou lead the discussion! User roundtables are designed as a forum and outlet for you to discuss a burning topic with a dozen fellow attendees. Discuss and debate best practices around a specific topic or initiative in an informal, interactive roundtable format.

WorkshopsWorkshops are among the best ways to optimize your Symposium/ITxpo experience—invaluable opportunities to refresh your knowledge of important basics and acquire a deeper understanding of new concepts.

MavericksNo one can predict the future, but the more informed you are and the more possibilities you’ve considered, the better prepared you’ll be. Maverick sessions delve into worthwhile what-if scenarios to give you an informed perspective on what’s ahead.

DebatesThe future is inherently uncertain. Uncertainty leads to debate, and no one likes to engage in a bit of friendly jousting more than a Gartner analyst. In these lively sessions, Gartner analysts battle it out over today’s most controversial topics, and in doing so offer some of the conference’s most insightful and well-rounded assessments.

End-user case studiesInvaluable opportunities to learn about recent implementations firsthand from those involved, end-user case studies run throughout the conference. Hear the presentation, then put your questions directly to the IT executives leading the initiatives.

Contract negotiation clinicsContract negotiation clinics are small, hands-on workshops that deliver a powerful combination of Gartner insight and peer best practices that will help position you well for your next contract negotiation—or renegotiation—with strategic vendors. Facilitated by a Gartner expert, each clinic delivers tools and tips aimed at getting you more for less.

The World’s Most Important Gathering of CIOs and Senior IT Executives 7

Super Sunday: industry perspectivesYour success as a CIO or senior IT executive is built on a solid understanding of not just trends in business technology, but how those trends will impact your industry. Our half-day Super Sunday at Symposium/ITxpo is designed to provide the critical industry context you’ll need to understand the discussion of the transitions we’re all undergoing.

Page 8: ThE WOrld’S MOST IMPOrTANT GAThErING OF CIOs ANd SENIOr …€¦ · • Increase your awareness of emerging IT trends, and evaluate their true potential for your organization. 4

Executives have new demands for IT’s contribution to productivity, growth and innovation. Business and technology leaders alike recognize that they can no longer apply the same practices and expect significantly better results. They feel many mainstream practices have lost their relevance. The situation must change, but how? Leading CIOs are driving new methods and solutions across all core business leadership and IT management domains by leveraging lighter-weight differentiated practices and technologies. These emerging practices are rapidly becoming the foundation for IT’s business contribution and the new baseline against which performance will be measured.

The CIO Program at Symposium will be:

Actionable, providing information and tools for the choices you face now

Valuable, expanding your thinking, accelerating your decision making and enabling you to test your ideas

Practical, based on the experiences of working with more than 3,000 CIOs and presented in a peer-to-peer environment

Efficient, delivering all of this at an event that recognizes the value of your time and commitment to attend the event. We provide you with:

• CIO-exclusive sessions with Gartner analysts and industry thought leaders

• Workshops that focus on the decisions you make in your role and provide a context for gaining insight from your CIO peers

• A CIO-exclusive lounge and work area that enables you to meet with your peers and remain productive while at the event

Business Intelligence & Information ManagementThe business environment is moving rapidly from contraction to growth. In this transition, IT leaders must anticipate new business patterns, models and information needs, and do two things exceptionally well to succeed.

First, they must provide better analytical and collaborative capabilities to exploit increasing volumes and types of information for employees, customers and partners. Second, they must build a better and more agile information-centric infrastructure that can integrate and manage information more rapidly, and from inside and outside of the organization.

The art of business process improvement—specifically using business process management’s (BPM) combination of a strong management discipline with powerful technologies—can unlock sustainable performance improvements from your value-chain processes. BPM requires four elements: • Refined skills, such as process discovery, modeling, simulation, monitoring

and optimization • Flexible tools, typified by business process management suites• New organizations, such as the business process competency center • A new expectation to treat business processes as enterprise assets

Enterprise ArchitectureTurmoil pries open the window of opportunity. During the recent economic downturn, CIOs and enterprise architecture (EA) teams have led and will continue to lead the transformation efforts that are reinvigorating complex organizations. As a discipline, EA promotes confident, visionary leadership.

Mature EA programs help institutionalize strategic thinking and improve the general management skills of the IT organization. CIOs and chief architects who position EA as strategy will be better able to refine their organization’s strategic focus, optimize IT investment decisions, refine the economics of IT, co-evolve improved business capability models with greater organization, and provide higher quality, more authoritative information to decision makers. These goals may sound lofty, but many organizations are using crises to position EA as a key enabler of transformation and innovation.

Communications technologies, networking and mobility are redefining how, where and when we work. Users want to communicate and collaborate using whatever modality works best —voice, data or video. They want to access business applications from any device they choose. And they want to do all of this wherever and whenever they want. These solutions need networks that are optimized to deliver high-quality, low-latency, cost-effective transport. It’s all possible, but it will be complex and very expensive unless communications leaders take control and lead these initiatives.

For many organizations, PPM has been focused on prioritizing initiatives and reducing costs. Enterprises must now position themselves for opportunities amid great uncertainty, and traditional PPM approaches won’t work. You need to build new PPM capabilities that can power growth and innovation, project management offices (PMOs) that really make a business difference, and portfolios that enable change, not stifle it.
