Buzz Description:

About the Symposium

The intensive, two-day SharePoint Symposium offers independent assessments of SharePoint that will help you make better decisions about whether—and where—to employ the platform. Through presentations, case studies, networking and interaction, the Symposium will enable you determine how, when, and why to use (or not use) the nearly ubiquitous platform.

You’ll hear from a variety of different perspectives to help understand how well SharePoint "fits" into different types and sizes of enterprises with different business objectives.

The Symposium will also prepare you for developing a broader SharePoint strategy for your enterprise, empowering business and technology managers to reach a common assessment of what SharePoint can and can't do effectively. You’ll come away able to confidently assess and plan any effort to extend SharePoint beyond a set of departmental installations into an enterprise-wide platform.

Come and get insightful, likely controversial, and sometimes entertaining answers to your most pressing questions
