  9:15 am Business Race to Mobility: Managing the 3Cs
    Sandra Ng Ms. Sandra Ng
Vice President, Communications, Peripherals and Services Research, IDC Asia/Pacific
   

With the increasing need to effectively communicate among organizations and individuals, complexity kicks in, leading to the emergence of converging technologies and solutions. The expanding mobile workforce is creating a complex but yet important and necessary ecosystem. With the ecosystem still being developed, stakeholders are taking a trial-and-error approach to partner and serve their customers. Not all players want to own the final customer relationships, many however do and there are just so many customers in the market place. Who is winning the hearts of the users today? How does the CIO and IT manager navigate within this sea of providers and solutions? How does one optimize adoption by balancing technology limitations and benefits? What is the strategy to effectively mobilize an organization's IT infrastructure to best serve its business goals?
