2012 Emerging Technology Conference

New technologies are hitting the market at record-breaking rates and now, more than ever, is the time to create an innovative and sensible IT roadmap. Attend McGladrey's 5th Annual Emerging Technology Conference to learn how to reap the benefits of new technologies including greater agility and scalability, lower costs, less on-premise maintenance and increased mobility.

According to an October 2011 Forrester survey of 2,800 IT executives and technology decision-makers:

  • Increasing IT capacity and resources to drive innovation is the top priority for IT decision-makers at small- to mid-sized businesses (SMBs).
  • Spend on new IT initiatives has steadily increased to more than 30% of the total IT budget.
  • The proliferation of mobile and cloud is driving R&D spending to increase more than 40% compared to last year.

It's clear that executives are interested in adopting emerging technologies as part of a push to drive improved innovation throughout the organization. What remains still undefined is how to create a roadmap to guide the organization through the vast market of emerging technology products. Cloud, mobile and tablet technologies are bursting onto the IT scene with upgraded systems hitting the market at an astounding rate. Is it Innovation overload?
