Thank you for joining Let’sConnects Virtual March 2021

March 2021! Think, a year ago we could not believe we would be living our work lives online and that several office desks are now collecting dust instead of coffee cups. It is already a cliché saying all this, but as strange the world is, it is worth repeating.

Luckily, we have the tools to get the job done. HCL Connections is the meeting point and the central hub where colleagues meet, work, document, collects, learn. A tool which breaks down silos, creates visibility and lets people do their job.

That’s why we in the Let’sConnect team keep on doing our job. Gather people that wants to share knowledge, network and help others. At either physical conferences or as now, virtual.

Last week we had our second virtual conference: Let’sConnect Connects!

Registrations were flowing in and the team was really happy by the numbers!

The reason was of course the topics for the conference:

 

WannesRams

HCL Connections News by Wannes Rams from the Let’sConnect team
(why upgrade to Connections 7, Install Automations, Connections Sizing Guide)

 

 

HCL Connections Client Advocacy by John Immerman, HCL
(join the Client Advocacy and take part in the vibrant Connections Communtity.)
Link to John’s presentation here

 

Take your Communities to the next level by Fabio Gervasoni, Design Lead HCL
(create engaging and attractive Communities by customizing the homepage layout
of your community, and new capabilities made possible by new Connections templates.)
Link to Fabio’s presentation here
Link to Fabio’s session here (Youtube)

 

After the sessions we had a really interesting Q&A session where we had a fantastic group of people from HCL helping out answering questions and talking to people from the community:

Adam Gartenberg, Director, Product Management HCL
Miki Banatwala, Senior Software Engineer at HCL
Bill Wimer, Director Of Engineering HCL

And last but not least we got introduced to Jack O’Donnell, the new Director of Development for HCL Connections. We are really excited that he joined us, and we look forward to hearing from him again!

Now we immediately start planning our next conference which will take place on May 11, 2021!

If you are interested to participate in any way (for example speaking in a session), please email us at team@letsconnect.world. Any topic is interesting, and particularly of course upgrading experiences.

Until we meet again,

So long!

The Let’sConnect Team

LetsConnect 28-29 September – Bienvenido a Madrid!

News cnx, conference, connections, digital, digital experience, dx, experience, hcl, letsconnect, madrid, soccnx, solutions by Wannes Rams

Join us to hear about the future of HCL Connections and HCL Digital Experience


Connections has found a new home at HCL. Alongside the transition, the Product Management team has worked hard to release a new version of Connections (Connections 6.5) with new features and has announced a bigger release, version 7.

Digital Experience has followed the same pattern with the 9.5 release in 2019 and a big new release in 2020 with version 10.

The LetsConnect team (formerly Social Connections) has followed the journey with interest and we are very happy we now can reveal the city and venue for our next conference, all about Connections and Digital Experience!

We know many Connections customers have been waiting patiently to hear from HCL on how Connections will evolve and continue to be the go-to place to find the company’s collective knowledge and skills.

The team has been working hard to find a place where we can gather all of you, customers, business partners, product management, researchers and the developers for our next LetsConnect conference. HCL will have a natural place in the spotlight as they will share news, plans and facts about Connections and Digital Experience.

So without further ado we would like to say:

Welcome to Madrid and Truss Madrid in WiZink Center!

We believe that Madrid will be the perfect meeting place for the Community! Mark your calendar 28-29 September 2020.
Stay tuned for opening of registration, call for abstract and sponsorship opportunities.

Announcing location of Social Connections 15 – we are going south

News 15, conference, connections, germany, hcl, ibm, munchen, munich by Maria Nordin

After a period of long thoughts, pondering, discussions, interviews we have decided the next location for our fantastic collaboration and networking conference known as Social Connections.

For the first time ever we stay in the same country as our previous conference, Germany. The reason for that is simply that the community asked us. And who are we to say no. At least for this time only. 😉

So buckle up, we are going south to the beautiful Bavaria and the city of Munich! The home of Lederhosen, Dirndl, Beer and Cars. All with a fantastic mountain backdrop.

We welcome you all to submit your session abstract and register for the conference as soon as we open our systems which should be during the next coming days.

See you in Munich, 16-17 September 2019 for Social Connections 15!

Social Connections 13 is coming to Philadelphia · April 26 & 27 2018 · Hook up with us and collaborate

News 13, announce, conference, connections, event, philadelphia, philly, security, soccnx, social, social connections, usa by Maria Nordin

We are announcing our 13th conference and we are just as excited as ever! This time we are heading to USA and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. “The city that loves you back” according to local tourism

Welcome to a learning and networking conference arranged by the global IBM Connections and Collaboration user group Social Connections! 26-27 April 2018

We have a strong focus on social collaboration technology, aimed at both existing and prospective IBM customers and partners, and at individuals with both business and technical perspectives. Our events bring together highly qualified attendees, speakers and business partners from all over the world.

Our goal is to take up the thread where IBM Think left off! Hear updates from your favorite areas and learn from both speakers and attendees.

After organizing and hosting 12 conferences we have learned a thing or two about running these events! As a result, all our gathered experience has allowed us to create an unmissable 2 day event in the IBM Collaboration space. We focus on bringing together customer decision makers to discuss, learn and get inspired about what is relevant in the IBM sphere and what is coming next.

New this time: We are broadening our scope with a new Security track! We have touched the subject before with a couple of sessions here and there, and now we feel ready to add Security as it’s own track. As collaboration is all about communication in between people we also think it is natural to look at how to protect the company’s biggest assets against threats through behaviors and solutions to detect and eventually close security gaps.

 


 

We offer our attendees and sponsors

  • Learning sessions and keynote sessions. Both technical, strategic and future of work. All with quality speakers from around the world
  • A great selection of user case studies focused on real life examples of how organizations have approached the rollout of IBM Connections!
  • Great sessions by IBM Champions
  • Speed sponsoring and of course lots of networking
  • A Gala night you won’t forget
  • A peak into the future with sessions on Connections Pink, Watson Workspace and What is coming to IBM Connections

Stay tuned for registration links this week!

Are you our next speaker? Call for abstracts is opening this week!
