Event
The Ortus Club Dinner
Are you wondering how you’ll keep up with the changing demands of your business in 2014? Are you seeking greater visibility within your organisation? Do you need fresh ideas to increase customer compliance and manage growth?
We will be exploring and debating these questions and more at The Ortus Club Dinner, 19th November, Haymarket Hotel, Central London.
As a senior decision maker within a software company, you have been personally invited to join us for an evening of topical discussion, great food, fine wine and finer company. Current guests include:
Chief Executive Officer -BullGuard Chief Executive Officer – Flexiant Chief Financial Officer- Caplin Systems Chief Executive Officer – Graze Chief Financial Officer – COR Financial Solutions Vice President of Finance – 7Digital Vice President of Finance – Workshare Finance Director – Qubitproducts Systems Transformation Consultant – Netbiscuits Global Business Development – DueDil Finance Director – Marmalade Technologies Chief Financial Officer – BigHand Chief Operations Officer – MooD International Global Financial Controller – Alfresco Software Chief Operations Officer – Assima Managing Director – Mubaloo Chief Executive Officer of Metals – Brady PLC Chief Executive Officer – TransversalRetaining visibility at the top of an organisation is key to a company’s growth and sustainability. Clear oversight of the company’s workings allows the managing team to make more informed and faster decisions.
The discussion will dive down to the root cause of why companies lose visibility as well a explore and debate the preventative measures that can be deployed. Our experienced chair, will tackle this in the context of the Software Industry and cover three main discussion points.
- Visibility in growth
- Visibility in business model transformation
- Visibility in compliance regulation
Growth – As organisations grow, many additional complications come to the fore. What worked for a 50 person organisation does not always work for a 500+ person organisation. More employees, more orders and much more data.
Business Model – Moving from a perpetual licensing model to subscription-based model has short-term and long-term financial implication for software vendors. How are software vendors managing this transition and what are these implications? We will be looking at what senior peers are currently doing to retain control and manage this transition fully as they adopt a SaaS based approach.
Compliance – Controlling compliance is crucial: 42% of end-users do not know when their licenses are up for renewal. Visibility not only enables software vendors to ensure customer compliance, but also presents an opportunity to pro-actively upsell and renew customer agreements. What are the latest techniques being deployed to regulate and enforce compliance?
If any one of these three points are relevant to you, or indeed you struggle to retain control and visibility over your software company, then you must attend this event. It’s a great opportunity to meet, network and get to the bottom of core business issues in an informal and unstructured discussion.
I look forward to welcoming you on the evening. If you have any queries please do reach out to me and I will be delighted to help you.
Best Regards, Sam
