Gilbane Events & Announcements

Event Offers Alternative to Traditional Tradeshows with Heavy Focus on Providing Independent Research and Insight from Multiple Industry Analyst Firms

BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Gilbane Group and Lighthouse Seminars today announced that last week’s fourth annual Gilbane Boston event (http://gilbaneboston.com) at the Westin Copley Place hotel, drew over 70 exhibitors and had an 18 percent increase in attendance, making it one of the largest and most important annual content management events. Attendees from companies such as Caterpillar, General Motors Corporation, Hilton Hotels, Morgan Stanley and Staples participated in the event to obtain independent analysis of technologies and trends from the large gathering of industry analysts and to view the latest solutions introduced by the exhibitors.

In 2008, Gilbane will build on its recent momentum by hosting two events, one in San Francisco, June 18-20 and one in Boston, December 2-4. The events will continue to focus on a variety of key content management topics including Enterprise Search & Text Analytics; Semantic Web Technologies; Content Technologies & Strategies; Web Content Management; Collaboration & Social Computing; Global Content Management; and Enterprise Publishing Technology. For more information on these events visit: http://lighthouseseminars.com/FutureEvents.html

“The Gilbane conference was one of the best conferences of the year for our company,” said Mark Chartier, sales director, IntelliSearch. “The speakers and the content of the sessions spoke directly to the concept that Content management and Enterprise Search is not just an application but a strategy. The people that showed up for the conference were exactly the people we were looking to talk to about our enterprise search solution. We also liked the exhibition format with respect to the technology demonstrations as there was a constant flow of new faces during the exhibition and a wide range of vendors from content management to enterprise search like ourselves.”

Separating this event from other tradeshows and conferences is the large contingency of industry analysts ready to share research with attendees. At last week’s event, analysts participated from 451Group, CMS Watch, Gilbane Group, Forrester Research, IDC, Outsell, Jupiter Research, and other firms. In particular, the Gilbane Group launched seven research studies at the event covering a variety of topics including Web content management, enterprise collaboration and social computing, enterprise search, enterprise digital rights management and more. To obtain additional information on these reports visit http://gilbane.com.

“Attendees are looking to obtain information that they can use to help them make the right decisions when it comes to purchasing and implementing content management technologies within their enterprise. Our event provides attendees with substance and this is reflected in the rapid growth of the event year over year. We are bringing together industry thought leaders, technology innovators and enterprise users together to learn, share and debate what information technologies will help increase revenue opportunities and improve operational efficiencies both internally and externally,” said Frank Gilbane, Conference Chair.

Global business mandates spell the end of cottage-industry approaches to global content management. It is imperative to rethink content management and translation process management, bringing these practices together effectively with people, process, and technology.

E. Buying and Implementing Content Management and Global Translation Management Systems
Andrew Draheim, Globalization Consultant, President, Dig-IT!

Managing content that will be created, used, and published in many parts of the world can be a daunting task, and companies are frequently faced with questions like:

• What information is needed, and by whom?


• How will information be published around the world and delivered to customers?


• What information should be translated, and into how many languages, and when and how?


• How can content be localized, even if it's not translated?


• How do we make sure the content is ready on time, when and where it's needed?


• Can we streamline the processes we're using today, and save time or money, or do we need new processes?


• What technologies can help us meet our global content needs on a realistic budget, and will they work for real-world applications?


• What lessons have early adopters learned and what solutions have they arrived at? How can new adopters take advantage of this experience?



Insights Into a Better Global Customer Experience at Gilbane Boston 2007

Participants in this workshop will:


• Review application scenarios to define the "must haves" and "wants" for good global content management.


• Learn best practices and implementation techniques from experts in the field, as well as what present technologies can and cannot deliver.


• Share experiences in managing content on a global scale and strategies for managing change and enhancing user acceptance.


• Understand how language-technologies can help manage global content.


• Develop individual requirements and guidelines for procuring and implementing technology for their own companies.

EST-3: Enterprise Search & Text Analytics Track Keynote: Will Web and Internet Search Technologies Drive the Enterprise (Internal) Search Tool Offerings or Will the Markets Diverge?
Search has been elevated to a level of general public awareness as a result of the Internet and adoption of tools from AltaVista, Yahoo and Google over the past ten years. As billions are poured into Internet Web searching, enterprises still struggle to find good, cost effective solutions that bring a value proposition to their intellectual property assets, information within the organization. Three industry experts, who have combined decades of experience with "search," before it became a household word, will share their thoughts about what the enterprise market should expect that technology will bring to their business needs in the next two to five years.

Moderator: Lynda Moulton, Lead Analyst, Enterprise Search, Gilbane Group
Speakers:
Don Dodge, Director, Business Development, Emerging Business Team, Microsoft
Matt Brown, Principal Analyst, Forrester Research, Inc.

Our most popular pre-conference tutorial returns to Gilbane Boston on Tuesday, November 27. Tony Byrne's morning session is a great way to prepare for the full conference.

Web Content Management Systems: Architectures & Products
Instructor: Tony Byrne, Founder, CMS Watch, Publisher, The CMS Report

Join us for a half-day tutorial that can help you and your team understand Web Content Management technologies, architectures, and the marketplace. CMS Watch founder Tony Byrne leads an intensive, fast-paced introduction to Web Content Management functionality, product categories, and specific vendors. The session concludes with a roadmap for product selection. Learn:

• 16 steps in the Web CMS lifecycle: questions you should ask and how vendors differ in how they achieve basic functionality
• 7 categories of CMS products, including features and typical price ranges
• Specific characteristics of sample vendors in each category
• How to start evaluating and ultimately select suitable technologies for an organization
• The 4 most common CMS pitfalls, and best practices for avoiding them

This session assumes you have developed a business case and at least some semblance of requirements such that you want to get into the nitty-gritty of product functionality and architectures. As a vendor-neutral presentation, this seminar will enable you to sharpen your organization's CMS needs and identify suitable technology choices.

Register today.

(Cross-posted from my collaboration blog.)

Perhaps it's cyclical -- like the long Indian summer we've been having here in the Northeast. The Web/Enterprise/stuff "2.0" buzz has died down (for now) and we seem to be into the hard business of real application development. Perhaps this is a good thing -- running on hype does little to transform businesses or pay the bills.

Certainly there's been a lot of excitement around Facebook as a collaborative platform for digital natives (and fellow travelers). Yet the long-lasting innovation, I think, is around the APIs and the notion of "open platforms." Of course Google was first to open the komono with its wildly popular Web services API into Google Maps. Now we're trying to make mashups of social networks.

I'm curious but not convinced. Facebook is building out its community -- Google is not far behind, pursuing the notion of social graphing. So far we can do all kinds of useful things in the consumer space. My favorite this week is friend finding -- which also leverages GPS technology. But business applications? I haven't heard of anything really compelling, yet. I'm still looking.

Which brings me to a preview of coming attractions. My colleagues Steve Paxhia, Nora Barnes, and I expect to cut through the Web 2.0 hype next month and shed some light on industry trends. We'll be reporting the results of our industry survey at our Boston conference. We'll have a statistically significant profille of what collaboration and social computing tools are being using in American businesses -- beginning with email and Web sites and assessing many popular forms of social media. We'll snapshot how effective companies rate these tools and also report on what each tool is best suited for. And I expect that before we're done, we'll have a few indicators of next generation collaborative business applications.

So join us, November 27th - November 29th in Boston.
