Against the backdrop of geopolitical volatility and macroeconomic uncertainty, the role of enterprise architecture has undergone a profound evolution.

While digital transformation ‘as a service’ is poised to drive enterprise growth, Architecture leaders have an unprecedented opportunity to define a new vision for EA and for their teams. We ask our leadership panel from cross sector enterprise and central government, what it takes to create and fund a strategy that delivers against business objectives, while meeting the demands of tomorrow.

• Are teams equipped to meet their organisations’ demands at scale?
• How can this be balanced with the increasing need for innovation efficiencies?
• How mature are the practices of today?
• Are those practices making a difference to IT and business change initiatives?
• How can organisations amplify the impact and effectiveness of their resources?
• How do you scale your purpose beyond organisational silos, across value chains and ecosystems to foster societal perseverance?
• How can you best optimise working in a multi-vendor environment?

In the digital era, organisations face a classic conundrum: if they don’t drive digital at scale, they will succumb to the gravitational pull of technical debt and status quo of their existing operations, business processes and legacy systems. In the face of these increasing demands, complexities, and competition we ask:

• How can you effectively scale IT service delivery while balancing innovation and transformation?
• What are the best ways of digitising your core and achieving agility while protecting the legacy systems?
• Which strategies and technologies are organisations using to reinvent their architecture to become more agile?
• How will generative AI and other technologies disrupt industries and what proactive steps can you take to centralise and prepare your infrastructure strategy?

Building Resilience & Mitigating Risk

Against the backdrop of the economic downturn and ongoing budget constraints, this tables explores how they are balancing the need to innovate while “keeping the lights on. Which digital strategies and technologies can generate solutions, mitigate risk, and deliver value?

Improving Process & Workflows

In the age of complexity Enterprises are fast realising the potential of technologies as a competitive advantage…

This table takes stock of their current processes and productivity, sharing the most pressing needs, and identifying which technologies leave more time for valuable work and boost key efficiencies

Transitioning from Legacy Systems

As we head into 2024, many organisations are preparing their budgets and priorities, with the promise and perils of tech solutions. This session explores how organisations can optimise their IT infrastructure, enabling innovation, while balancing resilient business objectives.

Monetizing Data Strategies

The potential for data to deliver value for many parts of the business is enormous. Sometimes, though, it’s hard for companies to imagine quite what the opportunities could be because they are so used to pursuing growth through established strategies and revenue streams. That’s why all companies should be open to learning from other businesses and partnering in ways that make sense from a data point of view. This table asks: How do you value your data?

Increasingly, cybersecurity is becoming a critical part of the user experience. Without safety and security as a priority, the user experience will almost always come up short, the two must co-exist. This session explores how you can integrate Cybersecurity in UX design, the best ways to plan effectively and which tools you can use.

• The big picture – how UX and Cybersecurity are related and striking a balance between the two
• How can UX design be applied to cybersecurity? What are the most effective planning do’s and don’ts, and which tools can you use for a more tailored approach? • How can this be more broadly embedded into company culture?

Culture is easy to sense but hard to measure. The workhorses of culture research—employee surveys and questionnaires—are often unreliable. So, how do you become an effective organisation in the new world? What does it take to cultivate an engaged and innovative culture that delivers measurable value in 2023? In this discussion we explore where the previous tools fall short, how you really move the needle, measure the impact of data in your culture and why training doesn’t work. We’ll explore how to effectively engage both employees and customers to drive meaningful change and value within your organisation.

• How to measure impact of data in your culture?
• Which aspects of culture relate to performance in different sectors?
• Should businesses themselves, auditors or investment analysts should take on this task of their own volition, or whether legislators and regulators need to take the lead?

In 2027, cloud will be the pervasive style of computing. Today, most people think of the cloud as a technology platform. This perspective will shift markedly by 2027. Cloud computing will not only be a technological approach for delivering applications but will also serve as the key driver of business innovation. We ask Venu for his top predictions for cloud computing in 2027, the rationale behind these predictions and key strategic actions IT leaders should take to prepare.

Building a Data Driven Culture

“Culture change” has been one of biggest roadblocks for the past several years. This roundtable will allow leaders to discuss their success stories in shifting the culture toward data-driven decision making and the hurdles they had to overcome along the way.

Strengthening Cybersecurity

How can you identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover with increasing threats on the horizon? And what if we can also deter? stop attacks before they even begin? We will discuss deterrence strategies, facilitate peer sharing and strategize on actionable steps to take when you return to your offices.

Driving Collaboration across Enterprise

For successful enterprise transformation, management and IT need to collaborate, sharing ideas and expertise to develop a roadmap that applies just enough architecture and supporting technologies to achieve business objectives. How do we bridge the gap and collaborate across Architecture, Design and Delivery?

Driving Efficiencies in Spend

As the economic pendulum shifts to cost control, IT will have to find ways to continue attaining the same results but with less margin for error…so where should they be investing and which future-proof technologies and architectures are necessary to take advantage of innovation, advance your businesses, prepare for inevitable changes, and avoid falling behind their competitors?
