Our agenda is out! Better than ever. Time to buy your ticket to the event!

News agenda, agenda social connections, ibm, philadelphia, speaker by Maria Nordin

The day has come. We now know who will be a speaker and what they will speak about at Social Connections 13 in Philadelphia on April 26-27, 2018.

We have an agenda!

We in the team always love this task. Extracting all the great abstracts from the database, compiling them in an Excel file and choose! But it is also one of our hardest tasks. Always. Because, with no exceptions, we always have a large amount of fantastic abstracts to go through. The range, the quality, the ingenuity. We never stop to be amazed.

Each conference is different to the other. News trends, new technique and solutions. Our speakers never cease to impress us. In the end we always aim to end up with a good mix of both technical and non technical sessions.

A developer, an administrator, a manager, an adoption consultant. All of them should be able to find something they like.

So please have a look at the 2018 spring edition of Social Connections!

We invite you all to participate in our great event! 2 days of networking, learning and fun.

See the agenda here

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!
