\nIDC predicts that spending on hardware, software and services in cloud computing systems alone will be $60 billion in 2012. The growth rate in the cloud sector is four and a half times that of the IT industry overall. Cloud computing is a compelling option for many small and mid-sized businesses, as well as larger enterprises, as it offers low cost of entry and ownership and faster time to market compared to traditional on-premise business software and servers. <\/p>\n

Among the issues we will discuss:<\/em><\/strong>
\n– What is the next generation in cloud computing?
\n– Which apps are being on boarded to the cloud now?
\n– Will the entire IT department be on boarded to the cloud in the next generation?
\n– What is the difference among virtualization, private cloud, public cloud and hybrid cloud?
\n– Which hot cloud companies are getting funded?
\n– What are the prospects for lucrative M&A exits in the sector?
\n– Challenges of the early adopters in the cloud, companies that boldly go where no one has gone before?
\n– How can your company directly benefit from the next generation in cloud computing?<\/p>\n

Speakers including senior executives from Xerox, three early stage innovative cloud companies, and a venture capital firm in the cloud sector that will discuss the most exciting paradigm shift in IT in decades.<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n
