Join FAST IiS member Flexera Software with keynote speakers from Forrester and Accenture for a breakfast briefing for key executives from prospect and customer companies.

This event will provide the attendees with a thought provoking and informative session on problems being faced by enterprises today related to software licensing and how this impacts their business as well as providing them with insights and advice on how they can resolve and address these issues.

To provide an industry perspective on this topic we have invited Duncan Jones from Forrester to deliver his thoughts on this topic. Duncan is a software licensing expert for Forrester and he will provide us with an insight into his knowledge of this space and advice for dealing with some of the challenges that businesses are facing in managing their software licenses.

Lisa Whittaker from Accenture will provide some insight into real world examples of dealing with the issues that software licensing can create and how these issues can be solved. Lisa will share her experience of transitioning Accenture’s two major internal organisations with over 200,000 assets onto the ECM tool and describe how automated connectors are allowing them to maximise cost recovery and optimisation.
