FINAL PROGRAM AGENDA:
| 8:30 am | PARTICIPANT CHECK-IN & BREAKFAST |
| 9:00 am | WELCOME & OPENING REMARKS Emcees: Diane Brady, Senior Editor, Bloomberg Businessweek Kevin McGilloway, Enterprise Products & Solutions – Strategy & Business Development, Bloomberg L.P. |
| 9:05 am | OUTLOOK FOR ENTERPRISE TECHNOLOGY SPENDING As the European debt crisis, U.S. fiscal cliff, slowing emerging markets and expanding regulatory requirements stoke uncertainty around the world, the search for new solutions to the “more for less” conundrum is more difficult than ever. We’ll discuss how companies are addressing this challenge and look at where they are allocating their IT budgets. What types of investments are currently being made? Are companies building out their IT departments and capabilities or engaging more in deals and M&As? How different are the priorities in technology spending in Europe and the U.S.? Speakers: Colin Bannister, CTO and Vice President of Technical Sales, U.K. & Ireland, CA Technologies Steve Grob, Director of Group Strategy, Fidessa Jed Rubin, Principal and Director of Operations for EMEA and Asia Pacific , Rubin Worldwide Interviewed by: Francine Lacqua, Senior Correspondent and Anchor, "On the Move with Francine Lacqua", Bloomberg Television |
| 9:45 am | GLOBALIZATION IN REVERSE Recent organizational announcements about retrenchment to mother countries, cross-jurisdictional regulatory issues, and the slowdown in emerging markets seem to indicate that the globalization phenomenon may be slowing, if not reversing. This panel will discuss whether or not globalization still represents a major influence in the financial services markets and the various strategies firms are employing to find the right balance between global and local. Speakers: Sameet Gupte, SVP and Managing Director, Europe, Virtusa Corporation Scott Marcar, Chief Information Officer, Markets, RBS Sachin Shah, Partner, Information Technology Practice, Bain & Company, Inc. Interviewed by: Matthew Campbell, European Mergers & Acquisitions Reporter, Bloomberg News |
| 10:25 am | SPECIAL ADDRESS BY BLOOMBERG’S TOM SECUNDA The founding partner of Bloomberg L.P. will discuss where he sees the financial industry heading and how technology and regulation are re-shaping the landscape for global financial markets. Thomas F. Secunda, Founding Partner, Global Head of Financial Products & Services, Bloomberg L.P. |
| 10:40 am | CLOUD: ADJUSTING TO THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE We’ll examine the impact of the twin trends of democratization of IT by consumer markets and the lowering of barriers to entry by cloud-managed services. We’ll compare the hungry and nimble niche players entering the market and the larger, established companies consolidating to create highly competitive price-performance offerings based on scale and SME. As companies refine their strategies, is it more effective to build scale internally or do it through the ‘cloud’? We’ll discuss how these trends are changing IT strategies and the basic structure of IT organizations. Are chief information officers becoming chief integration officers? Speakers: Joe Baguley, Chief Technologist, EMEA, VMware Roy G. Conlee, SVP, Chief Innovation Officer, Xerox Simon Daykin, , Chief Technology Officer, Logicalis UK Interviewed by: Anand Srinivasan, Sector Head for Semiconductors & Technology Hardware, Bloomberg Research |
| 11:20 am | WHEN COMPUTERS MALFUNCTION How can companies protect themselves from the self-inflicted technology-induced incident that befell Knight Capital, resulting in losses of $470 million? CEO Thomas Joyce said the computer glitch was an infrastructure and networking problem and not about quantitative tools. Similar incidents tied to technology failures marred the Facebook IPO and resulted in the cancellation of the Bats Global Markets IPO. As trades become increasingly complex, fast, and interconnected, how are companies and exchanges preventing costly computer errors? Do CTOs know what’s buried in some line of code or what unanticipated change will lead to a company-threatening failure? How are operations people preparing for Black Swans? Speakers: Veronica Augustsson, Chief Executive Officer, Cinnober Financial Technology Mark Hemsley, Chief Executive Officer, BATS Chi-X Europe Tim Wildenberg, Head of Equities Electronic Trading, EMEA, Citi Interviewed by: Nandini Sukumar, European Market Structure Correspondent, Bloomberg News |
| 12:00 pm | LUNCH |
| 1:00 pm | WELCOME BACK REMARKS |
| 1:05 pm | DEALING WITH THE DATA What are the implications of the IP intersection of data, voice, multi-media, messaging, and mail, among others? Is it just more noise and less news or is there an opportunity for new levels of information leverage? We’ll discuss the challenges facing companies on how to deal with ‘big data’ and the risk versus return question associated with acquiring, managing, and distributing huge amounts of information in the absence of mature support tools and techniques. Are there specific examples of financial firms exploiting big data for competitive advantage or for commercial use? Has big data management outgrown the purview of IT since it encompasses all operational flows, auguring in the era of the chief data officer or CDO? Speakers: Nick Halstead, Founder and CTO, DataSift Mohit Joshi, Vice President and Head, Financial Services Europe, Infosys Limited Interviewed by: Kevin McGilloway, Enterprise Products & Solutions – Strategy & Business Development, Bloomberg L.P. |
| 1:40 pm | THE TIPPING POINT: COST CONTAINMENT VERSUS HEALTHY GROWTH? What has been the cumulative effect of intense cost reductions conducted over the last five years on IT and operational infrastructures? Have firms really gained sustainable efficiencies or simply cut muscle with long-term risks? Have some companies reached a tipping point in which they cannot continue to cut without introducing serious sustainability risks? As companies move towards outsourced/shared/managed services, are they gaining or losing the ability to respond with flexibility to market dynamics? Assuming that the ‘low hanging fruit’ has been picked, what new approaches and innovative technologies can companies pursue to find both increased efficiency and improved effectiveness? Speakers: David Benson, Vice Chairman, Risk and Regulatory Affairs, Nomura Europe Holdings plc Jan Geldmacher, CEO, Vodafone Global Enterprise Mike Wright, Head of Technology, Man Group plc Interviewed by: Amy Thomson, European Technology Reporter, Bloomberg News |
| 2:15 pm | BALANCING ACT: ACCESS VERSUS SECURITY / TRANSPARENCY VERSUS PRIVACY We’ll discuss the increasing difficulty in balancing data availability versus security. As big data becomes more ubiquitous, what will be the new standard for information privacy and security? What approaches are companies taking to ensure that the right data is made available to the right people--and how can they be assured that this is indeed occurring? What innovative approaches and tools are emerging to identify data breaches, protect information-based intellectual capital, and create competitive advantage through information leverage? Speakers: David Bradshaw, Research Manager, European Public Cloud Services, EMEA, IDC Jacques Bus, Secretary General, Digital Enlightenment Forum; Advisor, DigiTrust.EU Chris McGugan, Vice President and General Manager, Emerging Products and Technologies, Avaya Interviewed by: Diane Brady, Senior Editor, Bloomberg Businessweek |
| 2:50 pm | LEVERAGING THE MOBILE ENTERPRISE How are financial services companies securing, managing and leveraging the fastest-growing computer platform—smartphones and mobile devices? This year, shipment of smartphones and tablets is expected to exceed that of traditional PCs and laptops. We’ll examine the challenges facing enterprise mobility, including supporting an ever increasing mobile workforce, consumerization, managing competing operating systems and disparate mobile applications and securing mobile devices that can now store more data and provide greater corporate access. What will the trading desk of tomorrow look like? And what challenges will that present? What are the opportunities and risks of turning phones into electronic wallets? How big is the market for smart phones replacing cash, credit cards, coupons, receipts and even registers? How are financial services and technology companies getting ahead of this trend? Which technology and which standard will be the gold standard? Speakers: Adam Banks, Chief Technology Officer and Head of IT, Visa Europe Peter Grimmond, Head of Technology, Northern Europe, Symantec Kris Snyder, President and CEO, Vox Mobile Jim Somers, Chief Marketing and Strategy Officer, Antenna Software Interviewed by: Simon Thiel, Editor and Deputy Team Leader, European Technology, Media & Telecommunications, Bloomberg News |
| 3:20 pm | THE NEXT WAVE OF INNOVATION Where will the next wave of innovation be coming from and how is IT evolving to create efficiency and agility for the enterprise? We’ll look at factors that are stifling innovation within the financial services industry and the implications from continued under-investment in R&D by large financial services firms. We’ll also discuss how today’s innovation might augur in new disruptive forms of competition. Speakers: Barry Childe, Head of Research & Innovation, HSBC Raymond Mulligan, Managing Director, Global Head of Trading Technology, Credit Suisse Johan Stael von Holstein, Founder, Wakopa Asia; Lecturer and Startup Investor, Mentor & Privacy Advocate Interviewed by: Olivia Sterns, Reporter, Bloomberg Television |
