IT at a Watershed: New Risks, Rules and Opportunities

March 4, 2009 • San Jose Convention Center • San Jose, California
March 17, 2009 • John B. Hynes Convention Center • Boston, Massachusetts

Watershed moments are those times in history marked by turbulence and rapid change. They often involve previously independent concerns drawn together by outside forces. This aptly characterizes the environment that the world faces and its relationship with communications and information technology.

Let IDC help you navigate the risks, rules and opportunities of the day. Our analysts:
possess technical expertise, extensive knowledge of the marketplace and its players, and indispensable insight into end-user demand;
provide intelligence on current trends and present market predictions for 2009 and beyond; and
can ultimately guide your efforts in identifying and developing key opportunities for your business.

Join IDC’s leading analysts for Directions 2009. The presentations, networking, and one-to-one meetings with IDC and industry Insights analysts can spark ideas and help you formulate your own plan for success and growth in the year to come.
