IBM Software Comes To You - 13th October 2010

 

Highbury Solutions is proud to be associated with IBM South Africa who will be hosting a ‘Software Comes To You’ event on the 13 October 2010. We will be showcasing our market-leading capabilities in Information Management and Information OnDemand solutions.  Visit us at Stand 17.


Event Objective:

On a smarter planet, software is changing how we live. We can consume only what we need, when we need it. We can travel from point A to point B in the most efficient and convenient way. We can access information and expertise just as it's needed. We can detect patterns to recognize and solve problems before they happen. Or seize new opportunities.

Behind each of these examples is a business, industry or government using software in new ways.  It enables every facet of their operations. It's a new model, and it comes with a new set of challenges and needs. Addressing those needs requires Smarter Software. Software that can help you to achieve these new heights.

See for yourself how IBM Smarter Software is turning performing companies into outperforming companies by attending the ‘IBM Software Comes To You’ event.  Learn from Highbury Representatives, IBM International Product Experts and Local Customers how to implement new ways of working.  Ways that have proven to not only hold great potential for transformation, but are within reach today.
