The agenda
The aim is to support the goals of HELibTech in helping develop an open and
productive dialogue among the key stakeholders in the library technology
marketplace. The event is free and will include a buffet lunch but spaces
are limited so if you want to come request a place
<http://www.kenchadconsulting.com/helibtech-dialogue-kim-massana/> now
This is not about a 'product pitch' or a sales presentation, but rather the
chance for key members of the library community engage with the CEO of one
of the major global library technology vendors. Kim Massana has a particular
perspective as the new (one year in) CEO of Innovative Interfaces after its
purchase by private equity investors. Some of the themes that we may talk
about are:-
* Shared services/consortia/resource sharing
* Routes to the cloud-pretty much all technology is going cloud based
but there are several way to get there
* What's the real business case for next generation systems?
* A perspective of the library market from a private equity owned
company
