Inaugural Gartner Symposium/ITxpo in Dubai to be world's top assembly of CIOs & Senior IT Execs

(prHWY.com) March 2, 2013 - Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates -- March 02, 2013
The UAE will become a meeting place for the world's leading Chief Information Officers (CIOs) and Senior IT Executives when the inaugural Gartner Symposium/ITxpo takes place from March 5 to 7, 2013 at the Madinat Jumeirah Hotel in Dubai, UAE. Injazat Data Systems, an industry recognized market leader in the region for Information Technology Outsourcing, Cloud and Data Center Managed Services, will be joining other major IT players in supporting the Symposium's unifying influence on the local and regional IT landscapes.

The Symposium will cover all important aspects across the IT spectrum via an array of session formats that include keynotes, workshops, end-user case studies, analyst-user roundtables, and much more. Injazat, a Silver Sponsor of the event and a key industry player, aims to benefit by expanding knowledge through accessing valuable industry intelligence and measured trends from the symposium.

"In a recent global Gartner survey of CIOs, results showed that on average, enterprises realize only 43 per cent of technology's business potential. This is cause for deep concern given how the global IT ecosystem is rapidly transforming due to the increasing convergence of mobile, social, and internet functions. For enterprises and organizations, this requires the adoption of new infrastructures, practices and services. Our industry's leadership would benefit from receiving insight and information of international experts to redevelop strategies and drive organizational growth. Injazat believes that this symposium is a vital forum for ICT development in the UAE and across the region," said Ibrahim Lari, CEO, Injazat Data Systems.

Around 500 CIOs and Senior IT Executives coming from 7 countries will be attending Gartner's upcoming Dubai Symposium and will listen to valuable insights from guest keynote speakers Gabor George Burt, an internationally recognized expert on innovation, creativity and strategy development, and Keith Ferrazzi, the world's foremost expert on relationship development.
