 Standards developed through the formal processes of transparent and accountable standards bodies are universally regarded as positive. Even when technical differences polarise technologists, it's difficult to find any users who prefer closed, proprietary technology to open standards. However, that doesn't mean standards are without risks or inefficiencies or that experience is easy to come by.
Now in its fifth year, Open Standards is the premier event for discussing the use of technology standards in business.
Target Audience
Across the board, IT standards are creating stable, low risk environments to implement solutions. Anyone responsible for influencing policy from public, private and academic sectors should consider attending.
The Open Standards 2007 conference provides attendees from both business and technology backgrounds with the unique and valuable opportunity to:
- interact with leaders in the development and implementation of open IT standards;
- gain a wide-screen perspective on where standards are succeeding and why;
- understand how organisations are creating internal "standards" to address local issues;
- hear how astute managers are using standards, instead of development resources, to solve IT problems;
- benefit from the collective knowledge of the longest running IT standards conference in the Asia Pacific region.
