Theme
The rate of change in our current time is the fastest ever. The age of disruption is here (to stay). But where does that leave us in the world of software development at a time where innovation is a strategic differentiator?
Collaboration is the key. This doesn’t just mean greeting your colleagues in the morning, but getting involved with everyone and everything around you. Pacifist and laissez faire approaches will lead to the demise of individuals and companies.
So here is the challenge: what does it take in 2018 as an IT professional to stay ahead in the age of disruption?
Join us on 15 August to find out/explore this exciting topic.
