Subject: OASIS 
announces the first annual 'International Cloud 
Symposium'

 

10-14 
October 2011
Slough, UK (near London)

Don’t 
miss the cloud conversation of the year.  This event will bring together 
standards development organizations, government, network & research 
organizations, and others from around the 
world to chart the progress and define a path to enable robust trusted cloud 
deployments.    

OASIS is pleased 
to announce the first annual International 
Cloud Symposium. Hosted at the 
beautiful historic 
Ditton Manor, located outside London, the Symposium combines high-profile 
keynote speakers, interactive roundtable sessions, moderated debates and 
interoperability demonstrations. 

The Interactive format of the Symposium 
will allow professionals responsible for developing, influencing and managing 
policy from public, private and academic sectors to converge in a single 
location to share experiences on cloud adoption challenges and barriers, as well 
as the latest developments in successful cloud computing implementations.  
International standards development organizations (SDOs), such as OASIS, will be 
on hand to address the significant contributions being made to address these 
major cloud issues.  The effectiveness of current international roadmapping 
projects will also be explored. 

Networking events 
will complement each day's agenda, offering opportunities for real-time 
collaboration.  Participation opportunities include birds-of-a-feature 
discussion groups, interoperability demonstrations and 
the solution showcase.

The Symposium is 
organized by OASIS in partnership with the Cloud Best 
Practices Network and Siena Initiative.
