Enterprise Search Europe 2013

The third Enterprise Search Europe conference will take place in London on 15-16 May 2013, chaired by Martin White of Intranet Focus. BCS-IRSG Members can benefit from 20% discount on delegate places.

“This year, the conference will focus on 5 key themes,” said Martin White. “SharePoint, the opportunities and challenges of big data, getting the best from open source, optimising user experience,  and search implemention. In addition this year we have responded to delegate feedback to introduce a major focus on case studies which demonstrate implementation good practice.”

The keynote speaker this year will be experienced enterprise search practitioner Ed Dale from Ernst & Young who will reveal what he considers to be the six drivers for search quality, based on his own experience of being the business owner of search at Ernst & Young. His presentation will give  delegates insight into a process which they can adopt and use to improve the performance of their own search applications.

Other key speakers include Stephen E. Arnold who will talk about ‘Big Data vs Search’ and Lynda Moulton from LWM Technology in the USA who will explore technologies and practices for successful search deployment.

This year for the first time the conference will also feature four pre-conference workshops which drill down into the four key topics in more detail.

The conference offers excellent networking opportunities and the chance to see a wide range of search applications in the accompanying sponsor showcase. “As the only conference in Europe to discuss enterprise search from a business perspective, Enterprise Search Europe is unique,” said Martin White. “It presents the ideal opportunity to share experiences, learn about emerging technologies, and find solutions.”
