eHampshire 3SW Conference - Watch Again

“Great Event”
“Very Good Speakers”
“Hugely Informative”
“Afternoon workshop was excellent”

This sample of comments from the 140 delegates at this year’s eHampshire Conference summed up the reactions to the fast moving plenary and workshop sessions and exhibitor demonstrations that made sure that this year’s event feedback was the best yet.

Using the theme of the ‘Three Screen-World, keynote speaker Houston Spencer (from Global Communications company Alcatel-Lucent) warned that companies failing to innovate and match increased customer expectations with increased service levels and availability (24/7 ‘always on’ business) risked losing-out in the 21st Century ‘any time, any-where, any form modern business environment.

With today’s graduates born in the age of the Internet, the conference speakers and workshop sessions highlighted that it was no longer acceptable for work based ICT solutions to have less functionality and less connectivity than those available to potential customers and employees in the home, via their laptop, PDA or Mobile Phone.
