The UK Public Sector is in a state of change. There is considerable pressure to reduce budgets and the Government’s Spending Review (due for publication in autumn 2010) will set out the plans for expenditure over the next 3-5 years. The spending review will directly impact expenditure on ICT technology, solutions and services.
Microsoft and our partners play a major role in the provision of efficient and effective ICT solutions to the Public Sector. Our Public Sector Partner Briefing will provide Microsoft partners with a clear view of Microsoft’s strategy, technology propositions and opportunities for the Public Sector. The briefing will also help to identify how Microsoft and our partners can continue to grow our mutual share of ICT investment throughout the Public Sector.
When?
The Microsoft Public Sector Partner Briefing will be held on Monday September 27th, 2010 at the Microsoft Campus in Reading from 09:30 to 4:00PM.
Who?
The Microsoft Public Sector Partner Briefing is a non-technical day and will primarily benefit senior sales, business development, business strategy and marketing representatives from the Microsoft partner community that focuses on the Public Sector – Education, Government (Local and Central) and Health.
Why?
The day will provide invaluable insight and practical guidance on Microsoft’s strategic direction, technology propositions and partner programmes that will help us to grow our mutual share of the Public Sector ICT opportunities. The programme for the day also includes breakout sessions/workshops where more information will be provided on our strategies, key technologies and programmes for the Education, Government and Health sectors.
The day will also provide ample opportunity for you to engage with the Microsoft UK Public Sector management team, sales people and technical experts.
