What is it and what can it do for my business?

Cloud computing has become a subject of increasing interest over the last few years but what exactly is 'Cloud' and what does it mean for business both now and in the longer term?

This event gives you the opportunity to hear experts describe exactly what is meant by 'Cloud Computing', to hear from businesses already using cloud services and gaining benefits, to quiz an expert panel and to workshop with other business people. This will help you to find out what the advantages and drawbacks are of commitment to the use of Cloud Computing.

Speakers

Ian Osborne, DS KTN
