IT managers and CTO's all over the world are currently faced with a flood of devices and services that employees want to use to do their jobs. The advantages are obvious: satisfied and mobile employees have the ability to work in creative, solution-oriented ways on devices they already know how to use from home.
But disadvantages are also present: IT departments lose control of the devices as well as core data flows. Like it or not, the consumerization of IT is impossible to ignore and is a top-of-mind topic among IT-decision makers.
In this Market Talk we take a look at consumerization from different viewpoints.
* HR and organizational aspects of consumerization.
* Security of data flows and devices.
* Consumerization as a growing business area

By breaking risks down into their individual elements and addressing the issues according to the interests of the organization, risk management makes the diverse IT-environment more manageable. Jes Kjær Mogensen from PwC will guide us through the key elements of this process. |
10:50 - 11:05 | How tablets and apps strengthen the business Alf Døj, CEO Comet People By removing 160 pounds of paper manuals from Thomas Cook Airlines and instead distributing the information on tablets, the airline saves a fortune in fuel alone. In addition to this are operational savings in the form of printing costs, distribution and shipping. Alf Døj from Comet People demonstrates through real-life examples how clearly articulated, business problems can be solved with targeted apps. |
11:05 - 11:20 | Pause |
11:20 - 11:35 | Turn business upside down when adapting to consumerization Carsten Levin, CIO Codeo. Teaching at the IT-university Using the possibilities of consumerization takes a great deal of consideration. Though it’s easy to give employees access to complex business systems from a tablet, it will rarely make sense. Refrain from giving your employees access to anything but what they need, when they need it. Carsten Levin gives us some good advice and examples on planning mobile access-projects. |
