Gartner's 2009 Symposium/ITxpo is more targeted to your personal IT needs than ever before. We've taken feedback from multiple sources — Gartner Research inquiries, Gartner's annual CIO survey and agenda, and direct input from our attendees — and have designed this year's event to deliver analysis and insight focused on your most pressing concerns.

This year's agenda consists of nine tracks organized by IT leadership role — a comprehensive program focused specifically on you and your team's specific projects and challenges. We are introducing new session formats, including peer-driven roundtable discussions that dig deep into the topics that keep you up at night. Plus an expanded CIO Program concentrated on unique needs of today's CIO.

In addition to more than 200 sessions packed with the latest IT research, tools, and insight, the 2009 agenda features:

• Mastermind Interview Keynotes with Leo Apotheker, CEO, SAP AG and Alan Matula, Executive Vice President & Group CIO, Shell International.
• Roundtable discussions organized by topic, industry, role, and company size
• Expanded benefits when you come as a team, including analyst access and private meeting space
• Expanded benefits onsite for teams including analyst access and private meeting space
• Over 70 workshops, aligned by role, where you can get hands-on and interactive and walk away with an action plan
• Six additional tracks exploring today's hottest topics including Cloud Computing, Web 2.0, Emerging Trends and more

As always you have access to:

• The Gartner Analyst Opening Keynote where an ensemble of analysts will deliver a perspective on "the new normal"
• Up to 3 Analyst One-on-One's where you can discuss your specific issues with a Gartner analyst in an informal sit down
• The ITxpo showcase where you can interact with best-of-breed providers and up-and-comers to learn about the latest and greatest technology solutions
