CIMdata to Host Free Webinar on How to Digitize Your Enterprise Network Management for Competitive Advantage

Educational webinar will present a framework to simplify enterprise network management and enable more effective and efficient collaborative innovation.

ANN ARBOR, Michigan, 14 February 2017—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, announces an upcoming free educational webinar, “Digitize Your Enterprise Network Management for Competitive Advantage.” The webinar will take place on March 9, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. (EST) and will last for one hour.

According to research undertaken by the Wharton School of Business, the Network Orchestrators, that is businesses based on digital platforms and virtual networks, are two to four times more valuable and significantly more profitable than traditional organizations. These companies are more successful because they leverage both the tangible and intangible assets of their networks and real time interactions better. Can the success principles of the Network Orchestrators be applied by more traditional enterprises?

According to the webinar host, CIMdata’s Director for Collaborative Innovation & Social Product Development, Dr. Suna Polat, “Despite investment in new digital technologies, people are still the main connectivity enablers in traditional enterprises. People are therefore consumed by a never-ending flood of emails and meetings. They feel like they have no time to think and innovate. To be competitive, enterprises must urgently remedy this situation. They must rethink their approach to enterprise network management.”

Dr. Polat has 25+ years of experience in technology development, product development, innovation management, implementation of strategic innovation capabilities—including modeling and simulation (M&S), open innovation, knowledge management—social technologies and social product development, and driving change and adoption. This wide range of expertise was gained through her career at Procter & Gamble and more recently through her experience at CIMdata, which she joined in June 2014.

This webinar will describe a framework that can be used to simplify enterprise network management and enable more effective and efficient collaborative innovation. Webinar attendees will learn about strategies for adopting the success principles of Network Orchestrators in a traditional enterprise for more effective network management, innovation, and product development.

The webinar will be useful to R&D directors, product development directors, engineering directors, enterprise innovation management directors, IT directors, enterprise solution providers that support innovation, innovation program managers, and finance directors.

During the webinar attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
