Rise of Mobility extended

The enterprise ICT environment is evolving rapidly with notable interconnected influences from many sides of the industry including the consumerisation of IT, cloud computing, client virtualisation, social business and collaboration, video, mobility, mobile apps and movements towards bring your own device (BYOD) strategies are some of the key trends across the region.

For most AP organisations regardless of size and industry, the need to improve workforce productivity, capture new talent, and obtain a competitive advantage by implementing forward-looking and dynamic end user computing plans cannot be underestimated.

Future Workspace research can essentially be defined as all of the hardware, software, services and connectivity that employees directly use on a daily basis to do their jobs. It analyses Workspace trends from the perspective of the CIO, IT decision maker or business leader and extends from printers and copiers to desktops and smart phones, from mobile apps and office productivity suites to mobile and fixed-line broadband and from social business to cloud-based applications.

Enterprise Mobility is a key element to delivering the capabilities of Future Workspace. Having a mobility strategy is now a critical requirement for many organizations. Creating a dynamic mobile enterprise, the strategy needs to encompass devices, platforms, networks, applications, social media/unified communications and security.  It's a confusing environment and organisations are looking for best-practice examples in areas such as mobile security, applications development and bring your own device (BYOD).

This IDC’s Asia/Pacific Enterprise Mobility Conference: Defining the Future Workspace is designed to do just that - strip away the rhetoric and provide attendees with a clear understanding of the latest developments in mobility and how to develop a comprehensive mobility strategy that is secure, social and best suits their business requirements.
