Paving the New Wireless Roads to Your Business and Enterprise

With handheld-enabled customers and employees expecting more access to enterprise data, services and applications, CIOs and their teams are pushed to new limits. Mobilizing applications is no longer an “if”, but a “when”. What are your CIO peers doing to meet these challenges? How are they balancing the need for new handheld applications, while migrating legacy processes and tools? How do they determine when it’s right for web-based applications vs. build your own? Where have they demonstrated best practices with application development, convergence, access management, WiMax and security? And how are they integrating newer generation device technologies to streamline workflow, collaboration and next-gen customer experiences?

The answers are at Computerworld's Mobile & Wireless World Conference, the leading event for CIOs and their teams to learn and network with the best executives in the business. Whether your priorities are to secure your wireless infrastructure, corral your device support strategy, or to embrace opportunities with Wimax, voice over wireless LAN, or unified communications, Mobile & Wireless World will help.

When you attend, you'll hear how world-class IT executives are meeting these objectives, and you'll network with peers who face the same challenges and opportunities. Topic areas include: Maximizing the Value of Mobile-Intensive Applications; Improving Business Processes by Mobilizing Field Workers; Capitalizing on Convergence/Unified Communications; Safeguarding the Wireless Infrastructure; Adopting a Sensible Device Management Strategy; and Seizing Value from Emerging Wireless Technologies.
