Online Meeting - Tuesday March 29, 2022 - 15:00

Data in the cloud

What is the right data strategy in a multi-cloud world?

Exclusive networking event for digital leaders in Belgium

Data might be the biggest asset of an organisation, yet more and more challenging to manage, in particular in a multi-cloud environment.

  • Are you capable of keeping data consistent between on-prem systems, cloud environment and edge computing?
  • Can you integrate and use data distributed over all these systems to contribute to business results?
  • Can you secure your data over an expanded attack surface?
  • How do you deal with costs which are difficult to predict?
  • Do you respect GDPR and other regulations?

Let's share experiences and recommendations during an online meeting on Tuesday March 29 from 15:00 till 16:30. The discussion will be initiated by a panel discussion with 

  • Philip De Bie, CIO at Picanol
  • Christopher Franskin, Global Head of Digital Technology Transformation & Enablement at Solvay
  • Gerdy De Clercq, Interim CIO, advisor and coach and former CIO at Fednot
  • Erik Valgaeren, Lawyer, Partner at Stibbe

You are welcome at our online meeting to learn from our panel and to exchange insights about the increasing importance of data in a multi-cloud environment.

  • 15:00 Welcome and introductions. 
  • 15:15 Panel discussion
  • 16:00 Interactive discussion with all participants.
