SOMESSO is a new global platform that brings together leading thinkers and executives in corporate social media to address questions and challenges specific to corporate adoption of social media.
Following a successful event in Zurich last autumn, the next SOMESSO conference takes place less than 2 weeks away, on Friday May 15, at the Emirates Stadium, Highbury, London.
Featuring speakers from Google, XING, SAP, Sony Ericsson and IBM among many others, it tackles the key question of today: how can companies use new technologies to increase social capital, lower costs and restructure processes as part of their efforts to weather the current economic conditions?
Even with an excellent lineup and a topical subject, it can be hard to justify spending on conferences. But SOMESSO is not to be missed so ICAEW has arranged an exclusive 50% discount on tickets for members. To use this discount, sign up online here.
I know a number of the speakers, particularly Stowe Boyd, Umair Haque, Marilyn Pratt, Lee Bryant and Andy Piper. They're all world class experts who inform much modern thinking about how business is being reshaped. It's an event I expect will give much food for thought.
ICAEW is sponsoring pre-event cocktails on 14th May - that's something of a first. If you can make it, I thoroughly recommend signing up.
