I ran across this event when I was following an ad on the ComputerWorld website and thought it was quite relevant for our topic on BYOT:

Consumer Devices in the Enterprise

Agenda
Event date: 05/19/2011
Welcome to the CIO Association of Canada, Ontario Chapter’s event  “Consumer Devices in the Enterprise”, featuring guest panelists Bob Hafner (Gartner), Alon Kronenburg (IBM), and Gord Stein (Rogers
Communications).
The Topic:
How are companies dealing with convergence (where employees are bringing their own devices to the office)?
How does this impact corporate ‘use of assets’ policies, security practices, asset management, equipment costs?
Is the standard desktop a thing of the past?
What will the tech-enabled worker of the future look like?
How are changes in technology precipitating changes in application development (e.g. Mobile apps)? How should ICT be responding?
If we are moving to an increasingly mobile workforce enabled by technology, how do corporate cultures and behaviours need to change?
Here’s the link for anyone who might be interested.  Its at the  CIO Association of Canada

I'm a Blogging Idol enthusiast who also does consulting for a living. I began my career as a railway data communications engineer. After working for a bank for 7 years, I took up the consulting challenge and I still find it challenging! I try to keep in touch with a lot of different I&IT topics but I'm usually working in areas that involve service management and procurement. I'm back into ISO standards development - in the area of cloud computing (ISO JTC1/SC38). I'm starting to get more interested in networking history, so I guess I'm starting to look backwards as well as forwards! My homepage is http://www.concon.com
