Defrag

Saugatuck is pleased to be one of the keynote speakers at the 2nd annual Defrag conference. Defrag is focused solely on the growing community of implementers, users, builders and thinkers that are working on the next wave of software innovation – those who are envisioning and building the tools and technologies that are leveraging the "social" aspect of software to accelerate the "aha" moment.

The organizers of Defrag – to be held November 3-4, 2008 in the new Hyatt Regency in Denver, CO – have assembled a terrific agenda with an all-star line-up of speakers, including Esther Dyson, Founder of EDventure, and Professor William Duggan of the Columbia Business School.

Saugatuck Vice President Mark Koenig will present new research on Enterprise Social Computing on Monday, November 3rd in a keynote entitled “Social Computing and the Enterprise: Bridging the Gaps” (see Saugatuck Press Release dated 21Aug08) Mr. Koenig’s comments and insights will be based on original research to be released in late 2008 and early 2009.

Key questions addressed in the presentation and the ultimate report will be:

	What are mid- and large-size companies really doing with Enterprise Social Computing today?
	Are vendors ready and able to deliver the business value that users expect?
	Can the business benefits of Enterprise Social Computing be measured?
	And what do users and vendors need to do to successfully leverage the promise of these technologies?
