Information 2.0: Entering the Information-Centric Era

Mark S. Lewis
Executive Vice President and Chief Development Officer
EMC Corporation

Information is growing faster than ever. It is being created by new sources and used in ways never imagined. How companies access their information is transforming how we work, interact, and collaborate. All of these changes create tremendous opportunities—and risks—for those tasked with managing information. Fundamentally, these changes will fuel a demand for innovative technologies to enable businesses and individuals to gain greater knowledge from their information. In short, information must be unlocked and made available to any application, to anyone, at any time.

Mark Lewis will explain Information 2.0 and what an enterprise needs to do to exploit this new digital era. Mark will sketch out eight rules for Information 2.0 that will affect buyers and vendors of enterprise information technology. He also will discuss major challenges that may fuel some of the technology industry's biggest opportunities.

Closing Keynote Address and Highlights Video – Title: Classified
Thursday 8th November
12.30pm - 1.15pm

David Gingell
Vice President Marketing EMEA
EMC Corporation

For the last four years, David Gingell has delivered the closing keynote at Momentum Europe. At first, there were only a handful of people who stuck around to listen to him. Those lucky few were treated to an off-the-wall session which covered a range of topics, ranging from British drinking habits to the value of Marketing in the 21st Century. News of his rather eccentric and quizzical delivery style spread fast and the following year, more people showed up. They were glad they did because they found out some key facts, such as the favourite imaginary dinner guest of Frank Chao—EMC Documentum Co-GMis Shania Twain, and that Howard Shaothe founder of Documentum"owes it all" to his MIT professor. By the time Momentum Rome rolled up in 2006, attendees were changing their flights and putting down their towels on the seats in order to ensure they attended the closing keynote. They were not disappointed, as Gingell appeared on stage dressed in full Gladiatorial regalia and delivered a scabrous and amusing 40-minute presentation entitled "What have the Romans ever done for us?" No nation got off lightly.

At the time of writing, Gingell hadn't even begun to think about a title let alone the content for this year's closing speech, but you can guarantee it will be a session you will be glad you'd stuck around for. It may feature James Bond look-alikes and then again, it may not. If nothing else, the auditorium will be dark and comfortable so it'll be great place to get over the libations from the party night.

So don't book your flight back home too early, come along, and be entertained. You know it makes sense.
