You spoke, we listened. Gartner Symposium/ITxpo is still the must-attend IT event worldwide, now with even more value added. Symposium is the industry's only event to deliver the insight, tools and relationships necessary to create, validate and execute transformative business technology strategies.

How did we improve on a good thing? By doing what we do best: listening & analysing. We've set up an Advisory Board of senior IT executives and analysed feedback across all sources to make sure you get the best possible value from Symposium 2009 - topical content, practical advice and relevant networking that will keep you at the top of your game.

In addition to more than 80 sessions packed with the latest IT research, tools, and insight, the 2009 agenda features:

• Mastermind Interview Keynote with David Thodey, Chief Executive Officer, Telstra
• Emerging Trends and Technologies - What's on the radar, how to increase innovation, and learn best practices for emerging technology planning
• NEW CIO Insight Sessions - Some of the Asia-Pacific's leading organisations are using IT to drive business success. Leverage their best practices
• Symposium Communities - Peer networking groups that deliver the most relevant content, interactions and information exchanges, based on your role or area of interest. Get only the insights you need

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
