Software as a Service

The Institution of Engineering and Technology
two-day international conference will bring together the leading
industry experts to discuss the current technological and business
challenges facing SaaS in India. The conference will provide a wealth
of best practice information for developers, end-users and systems
integrators responsible for bringing SaaS to life. Delivery
platforms, integration and customisation, security, trust and
reliability, business development, total cost of ownership, partner
programmes, and pricing models, are some of the key themes that will
be debated alongside key case-studies.

The forecasted growth of SaaS

* Asian market expected to grow 83% in 2008, as awareness and
adoption rates increase significantly

* Springboard Research forecasts that the SaaS market in Asia
will reach US$1.16 billion by 2010

* Web conferencing and collaboration currently represent the
largest portion of overall SaaS revenues in India.

Ease of use, rapid deployment, limited up-front
investment in capital and staffing, reduction in software management
responsibility, all make Software as a Service (SaaS) a desirable
alternative to many on-premises solutions. For that reason, many
companies are changing the way they purchase and deploy enterprise
applications.

This highly interactive forum will represent a rare networking
opportunity for all serious SaaS professionals, and will enable
participants to better capitalise on the many benefits SaaS has to
offer.
