This years’ premier European Analyst event provided a valuable update on IBM’s evolving European partner situation, and topics including Research, AI and Machine Learning, Hybrid Cloud, Security and BlockChain. Instead of (my usual) textual ramblings, I’ve created some brief videos on the event. Special thanks go to my video guests Gary Barnett (@thinkovation) , David Terrar (@DT), Tim Jennings (@tjennings) and Clive Howard (@clivehoward) for their valuable insights!

For more information and highlights of presentations please look at my (and others) posts on Twitter. Search for #IBMAnalystInsights and/or look at my feed via @allanbehrens

Episode 4 of The IoT Show : Analytics AI Machine learning Business and manufacturing insights.

The IoT Show delivers valuable insights for industrial organisations on the industrial internet of things and topics touching the broader internet of things. We pick engaging, hot topics, and ask our speakers to advise on situations, opportunities, recommendations and gotchas. This series is not a sales medium, rather a series of discussions for you to benefit from the experiences and insights of others.

We’re delighted to have been joined by guests, Jordan Janeczko from ATOS, Lisa DeLuca from IBM and Timo Elliot from SAP.
