Additionally, there will be a keynote address given by best-selling author and speaker, Scott Berkun, who has been featured by The New York Times, Washington Post, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and The Economist. His speech will discuss the findings of his most recent book, The Myths of Innovation, which covers some of the false ideas regarding innovation, as well as the lessons to be learned from them.
The event will provide attendees the opportunity to learn about cutting-edge developments in the IT and communication sectors, as well as the opportunity to network with local and international experts in the field.
