OpenText will be hosting our major conference of the yearOpenText World between 26th and 29th October 2020COVID-19 has transformed how many companies are engaging with their customers and OpenText is no different, with this year’s OpenText World being hosted digitally. 

Even though our event may be digital this year, it will still deliver an unrivaled experience for those companies looking to embrace information management solutions. 

For OpenText Business Network, this presents an opportunity to showcase new enhancements to the various solutions we offer, from business integration to the Internet of Things and Identity & Access Management. We will have fourteen breakout sessions including two live keynotes, several shorter, more technical ‘Turbo Talk’ sessions, virtual demo booths, and more.  

The events of 2020 have accelerated the interest in cloud-based solutions and in parallelcompanies all over the world are re-evaluating or ‘Rethinking’ their supply chain operations to be better prepared for any future disruption. 

From a keynote perspective, OpenText SVP of Engineering John Radko will be discussing why companies will need to rethink the waythey integrate to people, systems, and things across the internal and external digital ecosystems. I will be looking at why companies need to introduce more flexibility into their business operations and embrace a more adaptive supply chain operation.  Our sessions are grouped into three key categories: B2B/B2A (Business to Anything) IntegrationSupply Chain & Procurement, and Secure Information Exchange & IAM 

Heres a list of all the Business Network sessions we will be running this year at OpenText World.

In addition to these sessions, we will have nine Turbo Talk sessions covering more detailed overviews of our ecosystem integration, IoT, IAM, and visibility solutions.  With growing interest in SAP S/4HANA migration projects we will even have a session looking at how Business Network can support such migration plans. 

But it’s not all one-way! OpenText World will also give you the opportunity to see 12product demonstrations and discuss our future product offerings with our solution consultants – live and direct to your PC.
