A post by Paige Pires de Almeida General Manager, E2 Conference

Behind the scenes, we’ve been busy here at E2 Conference, and the time has come to show off what we’ve been up to. Thanks to our talented web and design team, we’re sporting a slick new look and feel for 2013 (check out our new site to see the redesign) and recently announced our initial keynote lineup, new partnership and a new venue. I’m excited to welcome keynoters:

to the Boston event. All of these executives will share their views on enterprise software, and how social business, cloud delivery, mobile platforms, and the power of big data are disrupting the traditional ways we think about the software that runs business and delivers the ultimate customer experience. In many ways the convergence of these forces has given rise to the very notion of ‘customer experience.’ At E2 Conference this year, we’ll take a deep dive into all of these trends, and then some.

Along with our initial keynote lineup, I’m very excited to have my esteemed colleague here at UBM Tech, InformationWeek Editorial Director, Fritz Nelson, join me as conference co-chair. Fritz has been covering emerging tech trends for over 20 years and brings a ton of expertise and (equally importantly) great comedic timing to the event.

E2, the business technology professional’s forum for engaging in discussions about the future of software and discovering strategies for business success, is taking place June 17-19 at a new venue: the Marriott Copley in Boston. To register or for more information, click here.

The creators and consumers of collaborative & social technologies are at a crossroads. Before them appears a question they need to answer if they want to take this to next level. The question is, “Can we do better?”  The right answer to that question is: YES!

This community will forever be connected. Creating, sharing, experiencing things from faraway places, have allowed us to “Come as we are,” so to speak. It’s an all inclusive club. “You, have an idea? Great! Let’s hear it.” You are in. That easy. So why is the rate of innovation currently, stuck in neutral? Continue Reading »

Help us develop our list of 10 Top Social Business Leaders.

This is a progress report on our search for the companies and individuals to feature in 10 Top Social Business Leaders, which will be the subject of a BrainYard digital issue we will release in November as the E2 Innovate conference kicks off in Santa Clara, Calif.

I hope to have representatives of the companies we choose join me for a presentation at E2 Innovate, but first we need to figure out who they are.

The listing below is my first cut of the candidates recommended through the call for nominations.

As organizations work to transition collaboration and social pilots to enterprise-wide initiatives, architectural questions increasingly rise to the fore:

  • How can we integrate with other systems?
  • How do we incorporate enterprise directory structures?
  • How can we ensure performance and reliability at scale?
  • How can we convert features to applications?
  • How can we put social applications within the flow of everyday activities?
  • How much does SharePoint — present and future — really address these issues?
  • How solid are all the many other vendors?
  • And so on…
