Smart Enterprise Exchange, an exclusive members-only service for CIOs and Senior IT executives delivered by United Business Media and CA, Inc., will host a Smart Enterprise Executive Exchange event on February 1 at NASDAQ in New York City, 4 Times Square - 43rd and Broadway. The event will focus on new delivery models for IT and how CIOs and businesses are using IT to focus precious resources on growth and innovation.

The Smart Enterprise Exchange event - "Optimizing Technology's Value -- The New Economics of IT in a Virtualized World" - will bring together New York-area senior IT executives to discuss how this new economic environment can bolster IT and support businesses for success with new IT capabilities. Topics of discussion will include:

  --  How new IT delivery models, like virtualization, cloud computing and
      SaaS, among others, are changing the role of the CIO
  --  What the right delivery models are for today's businesses and how
      these processes can change competitive advantage
  --  Best practices in redeploying IT resources for innovation and
      business-growth opportunities
  --  Understanding the new economics of IT - metrics for determining the
      real cost -- and the real value -- of IT

The Executive Exchange event features Peter Hinssen, co-founder of ACROSS Group and a respected CIO advisor and author. Hinssen is also a former Entrepreneur in Residence with McKinsey & Company. Joining Hinssen is Joe Held, Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer of Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, and Trevor Bunker, IT Transformation Group Vice President for CA, Inc., one of the hosts of the Exchange event.

"We hear repeatedly the business and technology challenges of senior IT executives around the country and understand the need to address issues connected to today's rapidly changing IT environment," said Penni Geller, Smart Enterprise Exchange Associate Publisher and marketing director at CA, Inc. "CA and our partners at UBM host Smart Enterprise Exchange events to bring together CIO peers to network, share ideas, learn from each other, and be inspired by thought leaders like Peter, Joe and Trevor."
