We’re participating in two sessions at the NOA Symposium held at etc. venues, St Paul\u2019s<\/em> on Wednesday 24th<\/sup> June. We’re also\u00a0sponsoring the pens (which will surely create an avalanche of new delegates)<\/p>\n

I’ll be part of\u00a0a panel with a motley assortment of legacy<\/del> analysts from Gartner, Everest and NelsonHall as part of \u201cThe Outsourcing Debate”, moderated by the Professor of Process himself, Leslie Willcocks<\/a>. This meeting will surely\u00a0produce some fireworks as we vehemently debate\u00a0the most overhyped and underhyped ITO and BPO trends in the UK.<\/p>\n

Then, I’ll be chairing a workshop session on \u201cTransitioning to the As-a-Service-Economy.\u201d This is a subject sure to be\u00a0close to the hearts of many of our readers\u00a0and we’ve lined up a couple of HfS community friends to co-host with me, John Ashworth, VP Finance Transformation and Systems at Pearson, and Steve Turpie, Deputy Chairman of West Suffolk NHS Trust.<\/p>\n

NOA Symposium… all the outsourcing royalty will be there<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We’ll\u00a0weigh the importance of the\u00a0ideals of\u00a0the As-a-Service industry vision, discuss how to get the right mix of technology and talent, and evaluate how the painful shift to As-a-Service is\/will impact traditional buyer\/supplier relationships.<\/p>\n

The Symposium will be followed by the NOA Summer Party (we guarantee it will not rain), where booze and entertainment (whatever that is) will be provided for the rest of the evening. \u00a0I’ll hopefully see you there!<\/p>\n
