We invite you for a physical round table & dinner in restaurant Restaurant Silo's in Boortmeerbeek on Tuesday, May 7, 2024 to join fellow CIOs, CTOs, Enterprise Architects and IT Architecture Managers to get inspired by Barry O'Reilly in how to leverage IT architecture to drive business results.

In this networking event we aim to discuss how modern IT architecture can bridge the gap between board-level vision and ground-level IT operations.  In order to fulfil its role as enabler for tangible business growth, IT architecture must leave its reputation of "Ivory Tower" activity behind and embrace the fast-paced change of the digital world.

Despite facing challenges such as budget and time overruns, or even outright failures, along with navigating the complexities of 'legacy' architecture and 'technical debt' that can hinder business objectives and adaptability to rapid change, we view these issues as avenues for improvement.

We are proud to host master architect and Techorama keynote speaker Barry O'Reilly for this event. Barry has held positions as Chief Architect and Architecture Practice Lead at Microsoft. In his current position, he's researching this exact topic, distilling what makes successful architectures and what doesn't.

Through discussions and networking, uncover how you can apply these principles to architect your own business's future, leveraging IT as a foundational pillar for success.

A characterful annex of the Boortmeerbeek malterie was transformed into a lively brasserie. Silo's is a total concept where the honest basic kitchen is restored in a contemporary way and forms a perfect symbiosis with a unique setting and a rich history.i​.
