Symposium/ITxpo Addresses
IT Issues Relating to War and Terrorism
Friday, 21 March 2003
With war in Iraq, global unrest, and the threat of terrorism, the course of responsible IT executives is clear: prepare for the worst and hope for the best. To help you, Gartner has launched a special series of seminars, presentations, and events to Symposium/ITxpo 2003: The Emerging Storm, What You Need to Know During This Time of Global Unrest.
Key issues to be discussed include:
emergency preparedness
disaster recovery
contingency planning
managing offshore assets and relationships
crisis-related IT personnel issues
the possible economic impact of war and unrest on your business.
"The Emerging Storm" sessions will aid you in evaluating procedures and formulating contingencies through three new sessions and two best practices workshops this week:
Best Practice Workshop: Managing Offshore Outsourcing and Geopolitical Risk
Best Practices Workshop: Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity
Competing and Governing in the Emerging Storm
Globalization of IT and Its Economic Impact
The Connected World: Addressing Globalization and Employee Issues in the Impending Conflict
Also, a town hall meeting will be held on Monday evening, 24 March at at 7 p.m. (PST) in Ballroom 6. We invite you to participate and ask questions. The webcast for the town hall meeting will be available after 6 a.m. EST, Tuesday, 25 March 2003. Learn more and register now.
