In 2012, more CFOs than ever before are responsible for their organization's IT investment strategy, because they see the value in IT as a growth catalyst. Competing investment priorities make it essential that CFOs invest in the right technology strategies, from consolidation strategies that facilitate mergers and acquisitions and global expansion, to big data, analytics, social technologies, and new cloud and mobile delivery platforms that are transforming how business gets done and profits are earned in today’s digital economy. C-level executives worldwide expect that these four technology trends alone—cloud, mobile, big data/analytics, and social technologies—will boost operating profits by 10 percent over the next three years.
Executing a strategic technology investment strategy requires a deep understanding of how technology breakthroughs are helping companies create value today. Oracle has partnered with Deloitte to create this special CFO Summit at Oracle OpenWorld, to share the finance best practices and technology strategies of transformational CFOs who are using big data and analytical insights to plan, forecast, and report on results more efficiently; social business technologies to engage and interact with customers more effectively; cloud-based applications to address enterprise demands quickly and cost effectively; and engineered systems to create a standardized, centralized platform for growth.
Regardless of your industry or enterprise's size, this CFO Summit is a must-attend program for any CFO looking to create an IT investment strategy that is aligned with the needs of the business and with the future of technology.
