Michael Desens, Vice President & Business Line Executive, System z of IBM
will kick off the conference with a session entitled
“Making the Extraordinary
Possible”
.The opportunity for progress is everywhere. The digital age provides
extraordinary possibilities for those who look beyond what is possible now and
toward what could be – to transform, innovate and advance their business
with disruptive technologies, lead their industry through differentiation, and ultimately
improve society and the world we all live in. Digital enterprises of the future are pursuing
these visionary endeavors, innovating continuously and bringing the extraordinary to life
today. They’re taking leaps driven by technology that create possibilities that were never
before thought possible. They’re continuously adapting, reinventing and transforming to
succeed and create new growth curves. They’re building trust – the foundation for success in
an increasingly complex world of cloud, big data, mobile and social. Leaders must continue
to look to the future. The question is no longer why, but how. Mike Desens will address the
question industry leaders are asking: “How can we make the extraordinary possible?”
