Gartner Catalyst Conference - July 26 - 29 2011

Just a reminder that the Gartner Catalyst Conference being held in San Diego July 26-29th is fast approaching and is one that if it isn't currently on your radar should be there.   We at Nulli had been attending the predecessor to this conference since 1999 run by the Burton Group but have made last year's conference probably our last for some time to come.  

Even though we see this as a very valuable conference that covers the spectrum of Identity Management, Cloud Computing, Data Management, Network and telecommunications and Content Management amongst other topics.  We really like this conference but find with our focus on Identity Mangement and Access Governance and Security that Catalyst is a bit too broad topic wise for our needs and would rather attend conferences with specific focuses in our areas of interest.   From a networking and contact relationship building venue Catalyst is also really great but this year we have decided to focus on Garner's Identity Summit.   The Summit is held in San Diego as well but is later in the year and seems to have a more focused approach and style that last year our analysts and architects found very very valuable.

In any event please consider attending the Catalyst Conference where you can certainly extend your knowledge of what is happening in the current world of identity management and track multiple other disciplines.  It also affords you an opportunity to meet the various vendors in the field who offer hospitality suites and a chance to challenge them on how they deliver solutions that drive ROI and success for your firm.

Hope to see you all later in the year at Gartner Identity and Access Management Summit in San Diego from November 14 - 16 2011.
