Investing in Information Technology

Reducing Business Costs Through Strategic Partnering

Please join us on May 11th to hear Tim Zimmerman, featured Principal Research Analyst for Gartner, present their recently published guidance for implementing strategies to maximize your technology investments while gaining the most viable solutions.

The Vendor Influence Curve was developed to help enterprises determine how much they allow vendors to influence their purchasing decisions. Gartner found that most companies fall between "The Optimist" and "The Follower". Become "The Leader" and learn to understand your business and technical requirements and choose a key/strategic vendor for major initiatives that best meet those requirements.

Sponsored by Comm Solutions and Aruba Networks, F5 Networks, and Riverbed Technology, you'll also hear from your industry peers regarding:

  • How they addressed business needs through implementing the right solution
  • Preparing and presenting a business case to support your technology decision
